Article: 12:13 I had a similar problem with one of the first Dan Wesson .44VH models. Every so often a round would failure to fire due to what looked like a light hammer fall. I sent it into the factory and they determined that there was improper headspacing (I didn't know this could happen on a revolver!). They fixed it and it's worked fine ever since, although I don't shoot it much. Another problem you might be having is the primers. A reloader friend of mine told me that CCI primers are less sensitive than other primers. So a less-than-heavy hammer fall won't set them off. This has been my experience, it's something for you to consider. Robert Allen, robert@spam.istc.sri.com
