Broken take-down lever

Edward Tinker · 11-04-2010, 11:02 AM

I hate to admit it, but it’s probably good for my character or judgment when it comes; but when first playing with lugers, I had a heck of a time getting those take down levers down and used force, luckily, never too much; by playing with it I would probably accidently move the receiver back and then it would turn. I was taught by Bill and others the correct way to take them down. It does not seem so easy when new to the game.

On more than one occasion tho, I have had take down levers that were tight as heck, i mean, no matter what they were about frozen. I imagine they are slightly bent and thus out of alignment?
