Default 6904 Binding Ambi Safety

Hey guys- I recently picked up an as new 6904 here on the Forum. As a southpaw, I activate the Safety/Decocker from the right side and noticed it was binding. But only when I activate from the right side- not from the traditional left side (as in what a right handed shooter would do...)

I took a quick close look and I see that the binding is caused by the inside edge of the r/s lever contacting the pistol frame below the lever and about 1/4" above and behind the red dot (see the attached photo).
I also can see and feel a slight amount of lateral movement with the levers from left to right and right to left. When trying to activate the Safety/Decocker with my left thumb, that causes the lever to slightly move inward, causing contact with the frame.

I'm thinking of removing the r/s lever and sanding/polishing down the inside edge a bit, but...
Does anyone have a better viable solution and/or suggestions (other than switching to right handed shooting and safety/Decocker activation LOL)?
