Primer indents are not necessarily a problem. Military priners are 'hard' relative to civilian components for this very reason. M1 Garand ROUTINELY and normally indents the primer of a chambered round. Not a big deal, provided the round is fed from the mag or clip. Spring tension from mag or clip slows the bolt enough that the firing pin strike is light. Without mag/clip some rifles, including M1, can slam-fire. But that is not how they were designed to be used.
And can we PLEASE get news people to learn the difference between bullet and cartridge?
