I apologize for taking so long to get back. Life sometimes gets in the way. I did get some of the steel wool and working on the idea that it is easier to remove metal than put it back, I applied it gently to all of the suggested areas. I tried it and there was no change. I repeated the process and tried again. Same result. I broke down and bought another trigger bar. It arrived last Sat. A quick visual inspection shows some wear on the part of the bar that cocks the striker. It doesn't look like much, but then again it doesn't take much. The new bar has been installed, but the next chance to test fire won't be until much later in the week. I'll let you know what happens.
