Luger Heavy Barrel Not Cycling

Re the function of the Dewey example I pictured earlier, I have not tested it yet - but plan to do so with the winchester white box 9mm in a few weeks - after go/no go check and another check for any visible cracks anywhere

the former owner provided a partial box of corbon type 9mm which he stated a gun shop had recommeded since Lugers need heavy loads etc. - apparently the corbon functioned ok for his test of at least 8 rounds - but the original micro steel sight had a bent body and the front pin came out in three pieces and the elevation screw was also loose - the original base seems ok

anyone have any Dewey luger test results ?
thanks
Bill
