I bought my grandson a Mossberg 500 gold trigger youth model for turkey hunting this year. But the top slide safety is stiffer than it needs to be imo. The top screw is one of those turn clockwise only type so I can't get it off to put a drop of oil down inside.

Any ideas as to how to soften this up a tad? Thanks.
