Default force needed when sliding safety to off...

Regarding the top safety tang on 1902 Parker DH. Safety is very hard to slide forward/off position, but once forced forward then it can be slid on or off with ease. This is noticeable after firing, in this case using snap caps. Have taken receiver apart and cleaned safety and accompanying jacket which goes through stock. Lightly polished mating surfaces. Also freshened up the flat safety spring/inside surfaces of the rectangular hole. Cleaned/lightly oiled cocking slide and accompanying parts. Now everything is back together but still stiff when sliding safety to off. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks in advance. T.
