I have two 9 x 18 mm Mak. pistols (P-64 and CZ-82) that shoot perfectly, but my Colt 1908 Model .380 has operating issues, mostly failure to feed. I have been shooting American Eagle ammo, and I think this is the problem.

Those of you who have a Colt 1908 .380, I would appreciate your comments, and like to know what ammo you use.

Thanks.:)
 
I was wondering if you tried a different magazine... ???
I have one that my grandpa kept loaded for over 70 years and the magazine lips were a bit loose. It would throw a loaded round out into the wind at every shot.

That was a good possibility, but I bought two new (direct from Colt factory) mags a few years ago. It never has shot right.:(
