Take down lever (which way?)

Tony Min · 09-30-2013, 10:23 PM

The side plate is not loose and the lever has no play. The groove edges in the lever are nice and square.
What I was thinking was that if this slightly extra resistance wasn't enough to keep the lever up to try to bend the old take down lever spring a little to give it a bit more bend.
I realize this is hardened and might not work. What about that?
It might be fixed already as there is a slight click when I lower the lever with the, what I think is the, new spring. I was just expecting more.
