AK102 light strikes

When I originally purchased my AK-102 I too, experienced a few light primer strikes. About 1 or 2 rounds out of a full mag. PSA customer service advised I send the rifle in for them to check it out. I didn’t feel like going through the hassle and waiting. I fully disassembled my bolt. I took the firing pin out. I didn’t see any debris whatsoever inside the channel but I went ahead and blew compressed air through it anyways. I then dropped the firing pin back in and added a few drops of hopps gun oil down the channel and shook the bolt back and forth a bunch to work the firing pin back and forth. And I haven’t had a single light primer strike since. I’m around 1300ish rounds in on my rifle and it’s been flawless since. Maybe worth a try for you and other people experiencing this?
