new luger = painful question...

naugler · 03-20-2005, 10:18 PM

Hi, I recently purchased my first Luger. It's a surplus Finn Luger, and I have a question regarding cocking this maching. when I pull the slide back to **** the pistol I have to use so much force that my fingers are raw and sore after a couple of magazines. Is this normal? Is there some technique that I should be aware of? I am new to Lugers, so any advice would be apprechiated. Here's a photo.
