Couple things. Clean it, the slides and the o-ring. Simple fix and cheap. Take the trigger assembly out and clean it as well. The lever to be able to move the slid sometimes gets gummed up.

and the best fix...use it! Run a few mags through that sucker! Watch TV and work the action. She'll slicken up after a bit.


Camp is where you make it.
