Could it be that is just how it is or.....???? Any hints appreciated.

Could be for any of a number of reasons. A replacement bolt might cure it.
As long as the gun is tight on-face and there is no wiggle between the barrels and the frame, it doesn't really matter that the lever is a bit to the left.
