Hey fellas, I recently bought a DWM Luger in good condition (YES!! FINALLY!) and I was wondering what weight of 9mm round to use. My gundealer says to use 124-grain or heavier, because Lugers need heavier slugs to kick the toggle-locking breach back all the way. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

  Yes, as Mark said. I would also venture to say do not use BlazerT or any other low power cheapo rounds. Your Luger will fail to feed if you do. Geco, Remington, PMC all work okay and maybe some other name brands. You need a good recoil/high speed bullet to cycle the action.
