FTF & Stove Piping issues...

I would check the magazine, but every time I've had a "stove piping" sort of problem (never had one so far with a Luger, but admittedly I reload my own cartridges and most of all I shoot Lugers only occasionally at the range), is generally a matter of a load too light for the recoil spring / recoil spring too heavy for the load, extractor tension too light, worn extractor hook, loose or damaged ejector, loose grip.
This is my 2 cents.
