Like I said, I'm not going to discard the advices of members here on the forum just for the one person, I must note that the old man told me he shot his Luger for 9000 rounds in the first year untill it broke, so that's also a hell of a lot of shooting in a small period of time, and like you said, we can never know if there might have been another issue with the gun which caused the breaking, that's why I'm going to keep shooting standard ammo, but just going to use magtech in stead of Fiochi because Magtech is a bit lower on power, shot it today with 20 Magtech's 124gr and it shot less high then with Fiochi, and it didn't have hang-up's with the Fiochi I had every 10 round that a bullet got stuck between the toggle, didn't have that problem with the Magtech, so think I took the best of both worlds, you guys telling me to use standard ammo and the old man telling me to use special ammo with a bit lower velocity ammo, now I'll use standard ammo but the brand with the lowest velocity out of the bunch, about the cleaning, I bought it cleaned and ready from the gun store, I'll take it apart maybe next week te look at the internals, shot rather nice these 2 days, so no complaints there
