firing not reaching cartrige

The case of the firing pin problem is solved . It was debris around the dowel pin on the firing pin. Cleaning did the trick but what a job to put back in . thank for all your help.

I just purchased a 1976 and the firing pin is not hitting the cartridge enough causing misfires. Anybody having this problem?
