Default What would your local police think about this?

What's next, a .44 replica with your call sign engraved on it?

Mine did the same thing. I pulled the knob off and put some penetrating oil
on the shaft. Kroil was the name brand as it does not setup and get gummy
after a week or so like some will. let it sit a day or so and put some
pliers on the shaft and turned it. It finally loosened back up.
Works fine after a couple of years now.
