One of my ROAs has developed a loose loading lever.
When clipped into place with the detent on the barrel the lever rattles a bit.
It seems that if I could loosen the screw that holds the latch and screw together, I could put either a new spring or stretch the one I have to create more resistance in the latch. However try as I might a can't seem to loosen the screw.
Any ideas? Would heating it up ruin the bluing?
 
Open flame heating will ruin the bluing, but electrical resistance heating will not.
