Yes to what Kurusu showed.
Sometimes the ejector binds in the slot, you may have to remove it and do a little fitting with a fine file. This occurs most often with aftermarket ejectors, but could plague any Luger. |

Sounds like a Numrich ejector...
Also occurs when a new owner attempts to 'straw' the ejector and it loses its temper and takes a 'set'...

A fine grit emery paper on a known flat surface (such as glass or machined steel) will work wonders on polishing the contact surfaces (top and bottom) of the ejector until it moves smoothly in the upper receiver. Also check the breechblock for burrs in the ejector slot that might inhibit free movement.

K, Your photos do show an ejector installed. I agree with Karl, that it may be sticking and not free to move in & out enough. I do have both vg to exc original ejectors in stock in the $50 to $75 range, but even these may require fitting to your pistol. Tom

True on a file, but these ejectors are not always "hard" though maybe they should be.
One can also use a diamond embedded needle file, they come in pretty handy for small spots too. Polishing after goes without saying, but I should/could have said so!. Quote:

I took apart and cleaned all the innards, then emery clothed the edges, put in upside down and it slides in the slot no problem. Still does not touch the shell rim. I believe this is the problem, agreed? Thanks for your help. Terry |

Does the front of the ejector spring flex inward with each shot? If not there may be gunk behind it.
See KURUSU's photos on page one. dju |

Just so happens a buddy of mine has a friend with a luger. We put his extractor on my pistol, and bingo. Shot 50-60 rds thru her. Groups GREAT! Functions just fine! Even the OLD, original Nazi magazine shoots real well! Thought at first it was a magazine problem.
Got an original EFURT extractor from ebay 45.00 shipped. From Columbia, MO. Is that Lugerdoc? Thanks so much for all your help here! It is so fun to get a gun up and running! And actually, It shoots my reloads, with NO PROBLEM! take care Terry |

Ejector is the problem, sorry about that!
Boy, I get one thing on my mind and it just stays there! This ejector, if I kind of bend it acts like its going to snap in half. You can just feel the metal separating. Has no spring what so ever. Terry Bought one from Lugerdoc, that he had on ebay. Original for 45.00 shipped. |

The color that steel's surface molecules turn depends on the temperature to which it is heated. "Straw" is one of the colors on this spectrum, at the low end. It was used until early 1937 as standard treatment of certain small parts on German military Lugers. It was a classy cosmetic accent from the beginning, but abandoned due to concerns of expense and time when Germany needed lots of guns, fast. There are stickies somewhere on our site that explain how to do it. It is true Toaster Oven Magic.
