Identification of DWM Luger

Another possibility is if the second round was a squib round, and the bullet(projectile) did not clear the barrel, and is stuck in the barrel not allowing another cartridge to fully chamber. This is a strange situation. By breaking down the Luger, you can look into the chamber and it will tell you what has happened. Keep us informed.

Thankk you for the replies. I broke the Luger down and there is nothinh appaernet in the barrel.

When I slide a 9 mm 9 x 19 into the chamber about 1/8 to 1/16 will not go in so that it can fire.

The tolerances seem to just be too tight of our new 9 mm cartridges.

I tried Winchester and also Lellier and Bellot FWJ. Sometimes one or two will fire but then it jams.

I am curious if anyone else has experienced such tolerances.

This appears to be a DWM matched number luger but no date on it with serial number 4051.

Any other suggestions on what ammo manufatcurer I might try

Thanks again

Dave
