1918 DWM Feed Issue

54gullwing · 12-17-2011, 11:56 AM

I have a 1918 DWM with a original clip numbered to the gun. This luger looks to have had little use in its life. I do have a feed issue when cocking the gun...

When using snap caps to get the feel of the cocking action and feel of the gun i have noticed that unless i **** the gun very fast i will get a snap cap to eject out of the gun when i pull the togle back and before i let the togle go to load the round.

I have not seen this issue on other semi auto pistols. Is there something wrong with my gun or maybe its the old clip?

I do not shoot this gun as it is all matching #s but do want it to operate properly

Any ideas?? Thanks in advance for your help.
