I was running lone wolf 4.6" barrel and I think the 20lb lone wolf recoil spring with steel guiderod.  I had a couple light primer strikes while my brother was shooting it in that configuration.  I think I had one as well.  When using the factory barrel and factory recoil spring I had a light primer strike with remington umc ammo on the first round I went to shoot.  Is there a part I should look at that may be affecting this?  I haven't shot it that much, less than 200rds.

Things to look at are the striker, and its channel (be very careful with the channel liner).  Removal of the back plate is not that hard but the spring and pin for the extractor can fly out with force.  The safety plunger's movement as well.  If either is sticking that may cause you issues.  They say NO Oil on these parts, but debris can still get blown into these areas and foul things up.  Part of the trigger group does require a drop of oil, see the lubrication info.

  Something in that area might need a polishing job performed on it.

Maybe a trip thru the dishwasher and some clp will fix it? Lol. Ok so detail strip the slide and see what comes up along with the trigger area getting a good clean.  I was very impressed with how hot the underwood loads were. Had a great feel to it!!
