  1. My first post here, so bear with me. I have a C&R 1943 PPSh 41 that just will not run right. When I got it I ran one drum thru it flawlessly, but it went down hill from there. other drums would not feed and even that first drum would not feed properly when reloaded. Drums do not feed consistently. Live rounds as well as spent casings will stove pipe or T jam and live rounds often nose dive in the drum feed lips. Another problem is the gun will just stop firing on its own. With either stick or drum it might fire a half doz rounds then just stop with the bolt open. I let off the trigger, depress the trigger agian and it will fire 6-8-10 rounds then just stop again. Been using surplus ammo, not sure where it is from. How can I decipher that from the spam can, box, or head stamp? Given price of dirty and corrosive surplus vs price and availability of new manufacture I will probably swithch over. Any ideas about a gunsmith that can help, any ideas of simple things I can try, any ideas on surplus vs new manufacture ammo? ANy help at all. Thanks, CavalryDave, Winchester, VA
