I seem to be asking a lot of questions today.
I have a 1996 Military issue G-1 that has the ideal USA zip on it. The zip seems to be in good condition but when it’s zipped up the zip sometimes gets stuck. It almost seems jammed closed and you need to move the zipper from left to right to get it moving again. It seems very random.
I added a small bit of victorinox oil to the zipper and it still got stuck randomly. So my question is have you come across this issue before. Do you know what the solution is?
I have a hunch that the zipper might just have naturally reached the end of its life. Anyway it would be good to get your thoughts.
If the zip is at the end of its life that’s not a big issue as I have a NOS one from MASH that I can replace it with.
Again thanks for any advice on this.
