1916 DWM at the Range

martowski · 06-10-2018, 04:15 PM

The first time out with a new milsurp acquisition is always a bit of fun. Today, I was able to run some ammo through a 1916 DWM that I picked up last month. I am happy to report that it fed and cycled perfectly. The only small hitch is that, every once in awhile, a full trigger squeeze doesn't release the striker. I will squeeze, nothing happens, but when I release and squeeze again it works. Only happened a couple times in about 50 rounds today.

The small sights and mushy trigger a a bit limiting to accurate shootinh, but the pistol itself is very accurate. Here's one 8 shot group offend from 50 ft.

Anyway, had a blast shooting this and plan to continue much in the future . If anyone has any ideas on what might be causing the intermittent trigger issue I'd be interested for your insight.
