Improvement function?

if the takedown lever and sideplate look mismatched number /different blue color/numbers are different fonts / obvious aged differently/etc - then it can occur that sideplate holddown tang or the takedown lever have been perhaps machined purposely/randomly to allow material fitment/relief to get close to the original tightness when assembled

some repro parts are castings and so have significant variance potential versus machined from stock

overall I like the honing idea and err on the side of too tight assembled when also using some lubrication on the mating parts

happy luger tuning !
