Heinmot:

You should probably invest in a new Meg-Gar magazine, as this may serve to eliminate one variable.

Excessive OAL, no, probably just the opposite is true. Original Luger ball ammo was loaded at 29.6mm (per my actual examination). Very few modern manufactures load to the proper length for a Luger.

AOL is critical for a Luger, as the cartridges ride up the magazine at a very sharp angle.
