Quality & Durability of Mitchell Luger

Steve Richards · 08-25-2008, 01:27 AM

I do own two of the stainless guns. One in 9mm with a 6" barrel and one in .30cal with a 4.75 inch barrel.

At first I had some trouble with the 9mm but I sent the top back and Mr. Romo replaced a couple of parts and it has functioned very well since then. They are test fired with 115gr S&B ammo so that is what I shoot when I have a choice. One of the ranges here requires use of their house ammo and it woks very well but is very dirty. My hands come out black after only a few rounds but the gun works without a hitch. The Clackamas county Sherrifs Dept range also require their ammo to be used and it will not function in my gun.

The .30cal will work flawlessly with some reloads that I bought from somebody who is no longer in business but will not work with Fiochi. I cannot get the .30cal Hornady bullets to slide up the magazine in the reloads that I tried. The soft lead tips seem to grab the magazine. Some experimenting with length is probably called for.

I like mine and plan to keep and shoot both.
