The High Power had a strong action and I never had a problem with it..
My High Power was right out of the old Military surplus stocks ,never issued and still had the cosmoline on it..
It was a beauty and still as good today and it always was..

Alex,
On this subject we once had someone bring down a German Luger and after using his dozen correct German WW2 rounds put in our standard 9mm. It worked just fine but the extra power slammed the action back something fierce. We all had a go but if it had been my weapon I would have called a halt early - I am sure it was much more rattley when we were finished than when we started!
