Thanks, Bruce - I need to replace at least one spring - the little double-ended one that puts pressure on the thumb safety and the slide release.... you can see in the picture that it has a twist and that's likely the reason that I find the thumb safety a little stiff.

I'm probably gonna need a picture diagram to put it back together - a couple of the little parts dropped out before I could see how they were installed.
