My model W-12 is hitting light on the primers in DA and not firing. Seems to work fine in SA (SA primer mark is a lot deeper). Anyone have any ideas or maybe a fix?

First clean the heck out of it. Check that the grip screw is not run in too deep. If you still have issues change the hammer spring. Here is a link to a tune up with all kinds of good info. And don't hesitate to ask questions.
