I am having occasional misfires when shooting DA in this revolver. SA shooting is OK. The hits on the cases are very light, even in SA shooting. The strain screw is in and I have no endshake in cylinder. When the firing pin is depressed all the way, only a small amount is protruding from the frame. I think there is the possibility of a worn firing pin or some crud blocking full travel of the pin. How much firing pin protusion should there be from the frame when depressed? And what is the proper way to remove the firing pin? I tried tapping the cross pin out left to right and it will not move, and not willing to force it, I stopped. I have a new replacement firing pin to compare the old to. Any suggestions?
My header didn't come through. The gun is a S&W 18-3 in 22 rimfire.
