Very sticky cocking lever

My Morini CM84E free pistol has a serious problem: As I shoot, the breech lever gets stickier and stickier, more difficult to close, and almost impossible to open. It finally gets to the point where I can't open it after a shot without using my stronger, shooting hand.

I have cleaned it thoroughly, and lightly oiled parts I thought might be rubbing each other to the point of seizing up. I have also tried two different brands of ammunition. Nothing seems to fix this problem.

Any suggestions?

I would suggest it needs servicing or at least looking at by a decent gunsmith, familiar with that model.

To holi the free pistol comp is 60 shots (in 2 hours), with unlimited sighters.
