New to Lugers

I'm a new Luger owner. My question is about what ammo to use. It's a 9mm and I use 9mm 115 grain in my P-38. So I have plenty of 9mm 115 grain on hand. However, can I use 124 grain also?

The simple answer to both questions is YES!! Just don't use "hot" or P+ ammo!! Good Luck

Any standard velocity 9mm will work regardless of bullet weight. Winchester white box or S&B works just fine.
