Hi, I have recently acquired a 714 and after taking to the range a couple of times with no issues seems to be misfiring every now and then, I am using some of my reloads with Fiocchi primers. Had a good look at the gun and the firing pin looks to be not protruding enough. I will try some different ammo over the next few trips but I thought someone may be able to advise me on adjusting the firing pin or if there is a known problem with Fiocchi primers. I am unfamiliar with DW revolvers and so are the folks at my club as they are not common down here in Australia. 

Thanks in Advance 

Mike

Probably why the previous owner sold it. First step is a disassembly and a good clean, then reassemble with a new Wolf spring kit.
