...and, wouldn't ya know, it was broke.
Picked it up this little Pathfinder snubby last week, and took it out to the back yard to plink some tin cans. All I got was 'click, click, click.' -almost no primer indents.
Well, they come apart easy enough. Problem was pretty obvious-
Broken firing pin. A little bit of the tip actually fell out of the channel and was likely preventing it from its full travel.
Not sure what it's made of but it's nonmagnetic. Bronze maybe?
Charter doesn't sell them, or at least doesn't list them on their website. $13 in stock at Numrich, though.
Oh well, the gun was used and cheap. Fortunately it also looks like a cheap and easy fix.
Turns out they are that bad- at least this one was!
