Based on what appears to be the design that would be nature of the beast and something with no simple fix.




Swaging the shoulder is a well known repair method, one commonly used to remedy situations such as over indexed single action Colt barrels. I built a tool for the job years ago by replacing the cutting blade in a large pipe cutter with a hardened wheel, works great, does not take very long and leaves little to no trace of the work done.

More than one way to skin a cat.

My point is that a take-up "fix" is not found in the design & mechanism itself as it is in more modern "switch barrel" guns.
