Luger ammo

[Mark]

Gruss Gott all!

I've been reading through the info.

presented here and I have a couple of

questions I'd like to toss in if that's

alright.I've read that one of the problems with the Luger is that it takes a "hot" rd. to cycle the action and that alot of the modern ammo doesn't produce sufficient

pressure to do the job.Is this purely a

case of misinformation by the authors or

do acceptable "standard pressure" loads

(as opposed to +P and +P+) vary to such

a degree in a general sense that one can't

rely at all on the designation that ammo

is "standard" pressure?

My stainless pistols seem to like 115gr

PMP ( South African ).Does anyone have

the data on where this ammo fits into the

grand scheme of things in this regard?

Kryrie,you mentioned part of the problem I'm seeing with one of these guns might be at least partially due to the load.Are

you familiar with this particular cartridge and its performance?Could this be a contributing factor to the errosion

on the frame that I've seen?

Sorry for running on,but I "needs to know" more than I do at this point about

almost everything!Thanks!


Tschuss! Mark
