Sear Safety

Tom,

I think so. Breaking things down, I can push on the sear bar, and the safety pin/spring slides up. Or I can hold down on the safety spring and the sear safety works. The side plate is cut. The pin or rivet through the spring and frame is slack, and doesn't put enough tension on the spring. It needs a good whack! But I don't have the right tool, and don't want to de-form the rivet head. Taking the sear bar out of the frame, I see that it is drilled, and that the vertical pin is very short. No, I think it is the rivet not putting enough pressure on the back of the spring. Or the spring has been bent?
