Lugers for Self Defense?

revolverforums · 02-01-2009, 09:27 PM

And if I really wanted to use an Auto for self defense nobody is more dependable then the good old US 45 auto. I have personally put more then 1000 rounds through this, all ball 230 grain and about half US army issue ammo and I can't remember the last time it jammed. However if it even gets to see a box of anything besides ball ammo it jambs.

The worst gun I've ever had was a (new) 1911 Springfield Champion, .45ACP
I had all the time problems with the extraction of the shell after firing, it stucks most often 50% in the chamber.This happend with 5-6 several brands of ammo.
This still happens even after about 1200 rounds shot with this gun.
