I had the same issue with an 1897 16 ga. 0 frame Damascus gun built for quail hunting according to the PGCA letter. When I had a qualified 'smith examine it he noted that the original top lever return spring had been replaced with a home-made one that was a tiny bit shorter and had in all likelihood not been tempered properly; definitely not factory work.
