Congratulations. NIDs are about the pinnacle of everyday using American guns. I actually haven’t seen many that needed service, a broken firing pin or two, and a broken stock or two. They are a tough design.
A couple really good gunsmiths pop in here now and then, James Flynn, Dennis Potter, Steve Bertram, there are others, but, you can wait until you have an issue to ask. The old guard is turning over, the guys I used are all retired, or, worse, unfortunately. If the stock was off the gun for replacement, I’d guess it got some lube at that time and you are OK using it for a bit.
Somewhere about the place is a picture tutorial, if you are stuck you can email a few to me to post for you. tedjs@usfamily.net
Welcome to the abyss.
Best,
