I actually already tried the eleectrical tape thing, and the problem persisted. As for the cutoff lever screw, I have the gearbox in front of me right now with the trigger assembly removed, and the lever moves freely. When I use a screwdriver to try and pop the semi auto blade up, it still takes a lot of force.
On an unrelated (or not?) note, the thing now seems to be firing very weakly once in a while.. Sometimes the bb's will just dribble out the barrel, sometimes they will actually bounce back off my cardboard target, and sometimes they fire just fine. WTF?
