Dmm oval biner softlock?

[stihlmadasever]

Hi folks,Had our kits lolered yesterday and had a failure with a dmm oval biner due to a "soft lock".

Any loler guys fancy giving me the explination to that one.

Ive tried the biner and its seems fine to us,all triple locks functioning fine id say.The biner was on my side strop,so it does get used a lot.

We dont get to speak to our loler inspector so im perplexed on this one.

Thanks in advance.

Hold the barrel with your fingers, then with your other hand push against the spine and try to rotate it, if it opens that is what i'd call a soft lock as essentially you can use it as a 2 way. basically the pin slot wears creating a little ramp.

 

Hope that makes sense
