What commercial ammo did you have the light strikes with? I have experienced light strikes in 32 S&W Long in a Model 31-1 with foreign ammunition that I suspect had hard primers.

Same with Magtech LRN in a 632 as mentioned earlier. Hornady, Fiocchi, Federal 32s - no problem.

Thanks. My light strikes in the 31-1 were with Magtech also.
Magtech’s primers can be harder than Ochem class. Not sure what to make of Lost River’s ammo… with that, I’d suspect something gumming up the firing pin channel, as noted.
But I’m not there, grain of salt, etc.
I'm not going down the debate rabbit hole regarding candidates for our next president in 2024, but I am truly and completely tired of this particular asshole.

Here's some fired and unfired S&B, some fired of my handloads with Fed primers and a couple S&B light strikes that didn't fire even with a second try. Both of these S&B fired when I tried them in an old I-Frame.
I'll probably pull the side plate tomorrow and inspect the firing pin.

Picked up the 432UC today. Sight is bold and bright.
@Lost River 100gr Poly Coat WC
First rounds at 25yds using top edge hold.
50yds needed drive the dot
Trigger feels like a well worn in J, with Apex kit.
My 15yr old son was making head box (4x4) shots at 20yds with ease.
Beyond impressed.
Grips could be more grippy, rear sight set screw was loose, and my hand size is a bit too small for the grooves, but those are the only faults I could come up with. I'll survive.
