Hi, I just recently bought a used E-mag it is all working fine but the safety is very stiff switching on and off.

I stripped it today to lube the pin and detent, I actually lost the BB for about an hour.

The lubing did not seam to improve the movement.

Anyone with ideas as my classic is no where near this hard?

Thanks for reading!!

Does you emag frame have a Hump on the back? If so, thats the older style and there was some issues with the safety. Try taking one coil off the spring. Make sure you hold the safety on both side after cutting the spring as it will pop out easier and you will loose it for sure...

Do you mean where the palm of your hand would be when holding it?
