    Glock 23

    Brought out my brand new 23 after getting it stippled and connector and springs upgraded had problems the pin would strike the primer but nothing. Happened almost every other shot could it be the firing pin spring?

    Did you have problems before the upgrades?

      Try cleaning the firing pin port.

        Does your unfired rounds have a dimple from firing pin hit? Could be a combinations of hard primer and too light springs.

        Since you mentioned new, have you fired this pistol before?

          Your spring "upgrade" may have been the lighter (weakened) striker spring.

          Swap your stock striker spring back in and try again.

            first I would try a simple ammo switch
            no I dont think its going to be the solution but that is the easiest test

              Seriously on a self defense weapon I would never mess with the springs.

              Spend $3.50 and buy a normal Firing pin spring and put it back in the G23.

                ^^^^^ This.

                I can never understand why folks try to make these into target guns. Buy some ammo, practice and learn the trigger.
