I recently purchased an H&R American Double Action 32s&w, and this particular one appears to have a firing pin permanently attached to the hammer that looks like a four sided spike. For it's first firing I put some wadcutters through it, though it is a second model chambered for 32s&w long with smokeless powder and should be able to hold up to regular loadings. My concern is that with the fiocchi ammo I was using about 80% had complete primer penetration. I'd like to continue using this pistol but want to keep alterations to bare minimum. Is there a way to correct this issue without reshaping the firing pin or replacing the mainspring? Would using harder primer cups, ie small rifle, be likely to help?
