Most of those guns have recessed chambers so that's really not a problem unless it's out of time. The tip of firing pin could be slightly blunted causing force to be spread over larger area. Firing pin indentation on case heads should be sharp and clean. It might be possible to file it down smooth if that's the problem but be careful not to take any off of length. I have taken old guns and peened the pin to make them longer but that's just a temporary fix. It might take a new hammer to really fix it but those are good guns and worth spending a little money on.
