I have a couple of LK rifles that have the back safety knob all buggered up. It looks like the previous owner for some reason took a pliers or channel lock and turned them. At least they could have padded the knob so it did not get all messed up. But they work, and I shoot them. I took some touch up bluing and clean up most of the mess.

Breechplug.. sorry to hear about your troubles. I was saying the same thing when we had that 70 and 80 degree temps a while back. All were cheering the warm weather and I was telling them.. this is hard on crops. And sure as you know ... we had snow on the ground yesterday.
