1918 DWM Shooter

EOC Bob · 08-31-2003, 05:13 PM

Interesting discussion that brought back memories (mostly bad) of my S/42 G date Luger that has now gone on to another victim 'er owner. I did every thing I could think of to cure it's stovepipe tendencies to no reward. I warned the buyer of it's problems but he bought it anyway and later joyfully recounted his range experiences where he could fire off 25 rounds without a hitch or hiccup. I had never heard of the "limp wrist" theory but even though I agree it's a myth, there could be something to it as the new owner is a rather large fellow and I fall into the "wimp" catagory of physical fitness. However both my .45's never falter or any of my other other pistols for that matter. I remain a "Luger Lover" though and treasure my 1918 DWM which is mostly trouble free. Hello again all - after a LONG absence. Bob
