Hey Folks, I'm unsure if this is the right place to post this, if not - please direct me to the closest correct forum!

The bottom button on my nemesis literally does NOT move at all unless I press it directly smack dead center of the mod.
This is the first mod I buy, so I am a little uncertain if this is normal, or how to go about trying to correct this issue!

Any advice would be mega appreciated!

This a clone, or genuine? I'm guessing clone. You need to be specific... 'cause our "Far Eastern Friends" clone everything. ;-)

Chances are, it's dragging/binding on a rough machining surface... or the clearance between button and lock ring or button collet is undersized. The Chinese tend to play fast and loose with tolerance, and if your button is max tolerance and the bores of the previously stated are minimum... you got no clearance for a bit of eccentricity.

Got a buddy with a digital caliper or micrometer set? Get it measured. As to a DIY fix... fine grit sand, clean with IPA, ever-so-lightly lube with Noalox and giver' another try. If not... send it to me, I'll fix it.

False! It is a genuine. 4447 from the last batch!

And No I don't have any friends that have that stuff hehe but! I can try those methods, I feel as though it may be the spring (not strong enough?) to force it up nice and straight, alongside the rough machining on the edges.
