I doubt that 0.0035 to 0.0040 of an inch will make that much difference:

As was mentioned previously, there could be some gunk on the back side of the firing pin stop pin preventing full forward travel, or in the firing pin channel in the bolt.

Doesn't read like the hammer spring is weak, as it does fire at least one round.
