Good morning!

Does this problem mean the mainspring is getting worn out?

The primers show the pin hitting off center.

TIA,

Kelly

Primers hit off center could be a timing issue; check for cylinder play by holding back the hammer with your thumb and pulling the trigger while keeping the hammer back. Try to rotate the cylinder; it should lock up tight, if not, have it checked out by a gunsmith.
