M1/Early Production Problem

Hi all,
There is a "picture" list of M1 Production that give us a good look at production. The file states that there is a problem with the Trigger Housing Group the year is 1939. The quiz is what was the problem with the Trigger Housing Group coming off the production line?
I hope that all of you have a Happy Holiday Season.
