Luger Failure to feed

fwm · 10-03-2014, 10:05 AM

Finally able to get out and shoot (attempt to shoot) my Luger. It will not chamber rounds. I first thought it may be a problem with my handloads so I went back to the range with factory ammo and same problem. Rounds come up out of the mag beautifully and feed into chamber no problem but the toggle will not close completely. To close it would have to travel an 1/8 to a 1/4 farther. If I gently push down on the toggle still nothing. I'm wondering of the extractor is the problem. I can't make it move and it won't snap over the rim. Wondering how easily the extractor should move or is it usually really stiff?
