Well, I am hard headed, but I have to admit when I am beat. Since my last post, I went out and bought a second Luger P-08 to better understand the gun and what was correct.

So the gun with the issue I will refer to at 1940.
And the new one is 1916.

I am gaining an appreciation to the old armorers and the new guys working on these hand fit guns today. GTI think this gun will need to go to you, but I am not sure if the lower needs to go also.

The breach is not correct. Not sure if issue.
Extractor doesn't look correct. Not sure if issue.
The bullet ramp on the lower and the feed ramp on the barrel. The lower has had material removed. The barrel has not. I am guessing this is where my real problem is. This is beyond my skill set.

Default feed ramp mod?

Hi RWBlue01, from the chamber pictures you show, the problem could indeed be the feed ramp cut on the barrel chamber lip? The frame looks fine to me, and I think we could do the barrel first and go from there? I could modify the ramp to the correct angle and length and range test it on one of my test frames to insure proper function? My mailing address is:

Best to you and yours, til.....lat'r.....GT...

Do you want the complete gun or just the upper at this time?

Thanks,

Default just the upper

If I revise it and it works on my frames, it will be good, and if any problem still exsists, it is most likely that the upper will not be the fault...Just the complete upper for now.... best, til....lat'r.....GT...

Default lined?

From the picture, it almost looks like a relined barrel sleeve? either way, it can be corrected... best, GT
