I have a Beretta 1934 that I lost the takedown lever for because it was loose to the point I could tilt the gun to the side and flick my wrist and it would fly out.
I thought it might be a defect with the lever, so I bought a new one from Numrich. I am experiencing the same "looseness" with the lever in that I can almost do the same as the first lever. I also find that I can pull the lever back to a 3:00 position (as though to catch the slide), but it will fall back to a 6:00 position on its own as though nothing is holding it in place.
My question is: should the lever be more secure in the frame of the pistol? Is there some other mechanism that should prevent the lever from rotating or falling out so easily?
