Luger Heavy Barrel Not Cycling

Blastattack · 12-31-2012, 07:13 PM

So, I got around to re-barelling my Luger, and ran into an issue when test firing my Fiocchi .30 Luger rounds. Hand cycling the gun works perfectly, toggle snaps down and strips, chambers and fires a round without any issue, but the gun will not extract and eject. I believe that the heavy barrel is slowing down the upper assembly, and the bullet (and remaining pressure) has left the barrel before the toggle can be opened by the coupling link. Any idea how to make the old girl cycle?

And a construction pic, just to taunt
