Thats really strange about the M-193. Never experienced any of it blowing primers and I can not estimate the tens of thousands of rounds of that stuff I have either shot myself or seen shot when we had the A-1's and even well into the A-2 era.. Primer no doubt either got caught in the trigger or fell into the breach. Major PITA to remove.
About the ejector mark on FD78's brass. That is a pretty deep mark on the brass. I don't think I would let it go.
Cut off one coil from the spring and see? What do you think?

The 5.56 barrels I experienced popped primers had short chambers and not true 5.56 throats..I have never seen any Colt barrels that had chambers out of spec..
