No you can't. You have to assume there won't be CLP, or any opportunity to find parts for your non-functioning firearm. You have what you have in a SHTF scenario. You can't go shopping. Your firearm should be dependable without the need to baby it. Over a period of a few years, yes, but if the SHTF only lasts for a few weeks or months you shouldn't need to be messing with it in order for it to function properly.
Another point to my post is in the real world. If you start messing with the functionality of your firearm then you will probably invalidate the life-time warranty. My point is simple. If it doesn't go bang, send it back. I contacted S&W today and they seem to be quick and easy to work with. They are in the process of paperwork so I can send in my Sport II for repair.
