One VERY important step when/if you reinstall the hook and screw is to be absolutely certain that not even a spec of foreign matter remains in the screw-head recess in the lug. If the screw isn’t seated perfectly and tightly the screw-head will damage the side of the lug recess in the frame… if you are even able to close the action into battery.
You would be surprised at how tiny a spec of foreign matter can cause this.
