Troubles with the mortise lock looking rather weary after disassembly. The moving lever is a bit loose on its axle and the pin no longer moves back the main mechanism.
The yard says the manufacturer no longer exists.
Any experience of fixing or replacing this lock ?
Thanks for your attention

I had that issue on our GB. A locksmith was able to recondition it.
 
I took mine apart and cleaned it real good. Used some light LPS grease then turned the shaft and a few other parts around, giving it a new wear spot on the same part.

They are simple locks to fix.
