This one followed me home yesterday. The body locking lever was broken. Today I pulled the butt off and removed the lever. Then I found out why it was broken. The Lock is frozen and has resisted my best efforts to get it out.

The greasy residue makes me think the phosphate wasn't neutralized properly. Do any of you have tricks for freeing these?
