I have had this problem for a long time and I am wondering if anyone had a similar problem and fixed it. When I try to pull back the delta ring to open the battery compartment it takes great force. I have to pry it open with an army knife because I cannot do it with one hand. It feels scratchy when I am pushing it down with both hands and sounds sorta like rusty and old oil. I have tried lubing it but its the same problem. Anyone know whats going on?

this post would fit much better in the "Ask a Pro" section

it seems like i've seen this post elsewhere... please, buddy, don't post the same topic in two different areas.
