1936 G S/42 Very stiff safety lever

ekjinaz · 04-14-2019, 05:25 PM

that can not be moved with just the thumb not just moving from the detents but along the entire arc of travel. Field stripped I can not see any rust or crud and all pivots points are oiled. I'm not comfortable disassembling any further and not going to try and bend the lever away from the frame as I understand it is brittle. Any thoughts on what is going on and how it might be corrected?

Thanks Eric
