I seem to be having similar issues with two 6" target guns from completely different periods. Both have some occasional light strikes. On investigation, BOTH appear to have had the rebound slide spring shortened. By more than the recommended ~1 coil. I have a local friend who has springs and other parts, labeled by date and model, but does not know how interchangeable they are.
My earlier thread on the older one, a 1931 K-22 is here:
K-22 First Model Double Action Not Working
I have since received a matching trigger from another forum member for that gun (Thanks, @Protocall_Design!). The other gun is a late 1950's model 14 that has had some light strikes since I owned it.
Q1 is whether springs are interchangeable between K-frames in the late 50's early 60's.
Q2, can the same springs be used on the 1931 K-22?
I can try to do this by trial and error, but I don't feel like dis=assembling these guns several times.
