G.T., thanks for your detailed description of the trials and tribulations of your latest shooter Luger project. I guess I'm just trying to get a better layman's understanding of the reasons for common malfunctions- not an engineer's or gunsmith's perspective (for I am neither and do not even play one on TV!).

BTW, G.T., I had an old Navy buddy originally from Chandler named Jim Napier unfortunately no longer with us. Bill

Hi Bill, glad to share here... really like the whole shooter / shooting aspect of the Luger.. On Lugers, there is worn, (mostly springs and such) and then there is broken! (or not functioning) parts.... I think after a few different scenarios, you get a feel for what's good or bad... and, there's always the rare weird never before seen issue, that takes a little extra effort.... and perhaps one even needs some beer to effectively trouble shoot...

... best to all, til...lat'r....GT
