[QUOTE="AdamK, post: 1406065, member: 29576"] Finally got around to cleaning it and it is working well again. The rubber o-ring around the back side of the lock barrel was creating most of the drag preventing it from returning to the locked position. I also replaced the phillips head screws with hex head screws I found at Home Depot. I managed to mung up one of the stock screws when I tried to remove them. Fortunately I was able to get <just> enough purchase to remove it before it was trashed.
