Sir.
The same thing happened with my 0.32 IOF revolver.
The cracking of the bullet case is because of low quality of ammo.
Please buy rounds from a very reputed dealer only.
Thanks.

The circumferential marks abaout a third from the bottom of the cases indicates a bulge in the cylinder, or abyssmally poor chambering. Spitting lead, the revolver is no timed properly. Split case, chamber too large/case too small, pressure too high. I would think that the revolver needs at least a new cylinder, and parts involved in the timing and rotation of the cylinder. Plus a new, or shortened firing pin. It's probably bent.

This could be one scenario. Long firing/defective ammo, primer is pierced and firing pin sticks in primer and does not retract, locking the cylinder from rotation.

when i dry fire it slowly chamber starts rotating and jammed after 4 to fire but when I tried to fire it fast chamber stops after 1 or fire itself,and the dent on primer was due to hitting of primer of every cartidge 2-3 times.As initially I was not aware the reason of misfiring.Yes Sir I agreed that this is irresponsible and a act of foolishness :stupid: but this is the reason dent are very deep.I am using K.F. S&W.L ammo manufactured in SEP2011
After loading and engaging safety catch ,cylinder of IOF.32 doesnot rotate,so I left 1 chamber next to firing pin empty but now I find that it leaves its place which may be very dangerous Please suggest,please help, suggest :( :?:
