Default Top Lever went Wobbly:

First time out with my 1902 GH Hammerless 12 gauge.
First shot, somewhat difficult to open the action. (I only fired one barrel)
Opened the action, retrieved the empty
Top Lever is floppy (easily moves manually left & right with full travel)
What I know:
No lever pressure
Action locks when lever is manually pushed left
Gun cocks and dry fires normally

The top lever directly engages the bolt
The top lever uses a coil spring driven plunger to apply pressure to the lever.

Solutions:
-Exploratory surgery, identify broken part(s), source and replace.
-Send to someone trusted who absolutely knows Parkers.

Recommendations for a master surgeon please.
Thank you
