If you haven't already, start with a field strip- good cleaning and re-lube.
Pay special attention to the small plunger in the sear bar to be sure it moves easily; be sure to lube the trigger lever, and trigger pivot points.

And. Don't lube the plunger. Sometimes it doesn't move freely because someone put lube on it in the past.

I don't agree.

Lube with grease is a no-no; very thin oil is the ticket; like any moving metal it does need a little lube.
