Magazine Test

Tested 7 magazines with the same Luger and 115gr Winchester FMJ with the following reults:

Original Luger fxo No malfunctions

Triple-K Stainless#1 No Malfunctions

Triple-K Stainless#2 No Malfunctions

MEC-GAR Blue (Older Unmarked) No Malfunctions

MEC-GAR Blue (New with trademark) No Malfunctions

MEC-GAR Nickel#1 No Malfunctions

MEC-GAR Nickel#2 *** Last cartridge did not feed, and the hold-open stopped the toggle in the UP position. Was out of ammunition at this point and did not have a chance to retest the MEC-GAR Nickel#2. Next time at the range I will re-test this MEC-GAR to determine if this was just a fluke or if there is a problem.
