I installed an Ed Brown ambi-safety on my 1911, but find that the two halves do not want to 'stay together'. The connecting joint in the centre between the two thumb levers is a sort of flat male/female joint, but the right side thumb lever will start to walk out of the frame, and will neither engage nor disengage the safety. I've tried squeezing the "female" side of the joint a bit more each time so that when I assemble the right side thumb safety it takes a pair of (jaws protected) vice grips to get it to "click" into place. However, after about 20 or 30 cycles of applying and "offing" the safety, the right side gets sloppy again.
Am I doing something wrong..? Any ideas?
Thanks,
Mike
