This page discusses how to re-install a lever. http://www.richardspens.com/ref/repa...s.htm#snapring
The pen used in the example appears to be an Esterbrook J series pen. I attempted the procedure on a junk Esterbrook, with poor results. I deformed the U shape of the lever, specifically where the ring passes through it, deformed the ring badly, and slightly cut the channel in the barrel's lever opening. I re-shaped the ring and tried again. And again. No joy.
As described on the web page, the procedure seemed simple and easy. I'm glad I used a junk pen.
Any suggestions for success?
