Marc,
Thanks... Actually played with it again today. 100 Rounds of Remington Shur-Shot, 115 grain, Mec-Gar Mags. Not one mis-fire.

Understood on the limp-wristing. Glocks do that too, but it's not something I've had a problem with in the past.

My next step is to try reloading. Not sure where that will take me, but I'm going to have to go in that direction if I want to use the Mannlicher my grandfather gave me, so I might as well. If I've done my research here well, I need to get a medium speed burning powder, and the gun was designed for 123 grain (closest I can find to that is 124) and a muzzle velocity about 1075fps.

Eventually, I'll take the magazine apart, count turns, etc. I know it's not original to the gun (serial numbers don't match) but it is a wooden base with an aluminum mag.

Thanks for all.
