PPK/S Questions

I have found a nice little PPK/S. It is very tight chambering the first round, and in the double action trigger pull. I think running a couple hundred rounds through it should loosen it up (my wife and daughters like shooting it, they mentioned it was a little difficult chambering the first round from a loaded magazine).
My second question is about the de-cocking aspect. When the pistol is de-cocked with a round in the chamber, is that akin to a revolver with the hammer, down on a loaded chamber and if the hammer is struck there is a good chance the round will go off, or when the PPK/S is de-cocked does a plate come up between the firing pin and the round in the chamber reducing the probability of an accidental discharge?
Thanks
