My 1918 Imperial Police modified luger does not lock back after last cartridge is fired. It will not lock back manually either. I believe that the magazine is the problem. it is a WWll P08 fxo plastic base mag. and it does not extend far enough to hold the mag lever. The lever can be made to work if a pencil is inserted in the magazine well and the lever is pushed up.

I am willing to buy a repro mag. but I do not want to spend $40.00 and up for something that might not work.

I have tried various gun shops around here and none have lugers, much less magazines to try. Any suggestions for making the WWll magzine work?
