Some have actually worked to bend a little more tightness in the L lever... but this is a hardened part and VERY subject to breakage... unless you are a machinist, I would not use this solution.

I have a gunsmith/machinist buddy that might be able to tweak it...

Do me a favor..video yer bud when he breaks this lever..er tweaks it! I would love to see the expression on his face!

There is NO bending this lever. Unless you are a metalurgist and can take it's temper off and then re temper it. It's hard as a rock and like glass.
