The same assembly that caused me lots of grief, but only once, in my Mark 1! Nice to know some things never change.
After that agonizing episode I decided it'd be lots easier (than growing a 34d and 4th arm with miniature but full strength fingers) to just hose down the pistol with a spray solvent, clean the bore and lube a bit - some gun oil in alcohol or a dip in Ed's Red seems fine for these recalcitrant assembly type pistols. Never a problem after that, no jams, great accuracy, kept shooting even after a couple bricks of dirty ammo made it spit crud out the ejection port. And I've never heard of one wearing out.
