First proper Luger

Looks like you got a great shooter!! 100 rounds with no jams is very good. I would stay with std. velocity ammo, and it appears that your Luger loves the Perfecta ammo.....match made in Heaven!!

I live in a warm climate, and use TW25b grease on all of my autos on the slide/frame interface. I use oil on the less friction areas. Just keep it clean, and lubed, and you should be just fine.

To me, if I purchase a 100% reliable Luger, then I feel my money was well spent. There are a LOT of Lugers for sale that require some/lot of "tuning" to get them working properly. Sometimes even having to purchase extractors, springs, breachblocks, etc. and that can get expensive and frustrating. You did just fine, in my way of thinking.....enjoy!!
