George W and I were having trouble with the Yugo primers. Without having any spacers with us, we tried out the Swedish firing pins and they are longer than the standard A4 firing pins and work great. They use a cool two piece design with the actual firing pin being a seperate part from the main body.
Firing pin spacers do work!
I tried to fire Yugo 8mm out of my gun and I could not get more than 2 or 3 rounds to fire together and then I would get a deep primer hit but no ignition. I then installed a New/Old stock firing pin and I could get several rounds to go off together, I then installed the spacer from Brassmagnet and we fired about 1000 rounds with no FTF issues at all.
