Folks,
Yesterday I acquired a seldom used Ted Williams 30-30 from a buddy who has been the sole owner since new. Looking it over the action shows almost zero wear and regardless of the vintage I don't think it's "broken in". My only real issue is I have to use a really firm grip on the lever to disengage the trigger safety. (forgive me if the terminology is wrong). I don't have this issue with my Marlin 1894c at all.
If I so much as relax my grip I can not pull the trigger. Is there something I can do for this or does the action just need to worked for a while?
I know I certainly would not want to be able to fire the rifle out of battery and it sounds pretty redneck but the slightest bump of JB weld or solder on the lever would solve this.
Thanks
