Maybe--let's see some. Otherwise, a strange problem. The safety bar blocks the outward motion of the sear bar on that end. It's a little weird how this is malfunctioning, in that disengaging the safety shouldn't ordinarily move the bar. The system is, I think, harboring some sort of tension when the safety is on and created when the trigger is then pulled. I'd check the angles and conditions of the corners that interface between the sear and striker, in addition to the sear spring, and range and smoothness of all parts' motions during the process. Did you remove the sear bar during the cleaning?
