Subject: [Leica] elmar with sticky aperture

I have an opportunity to buy a friend's Elmar f 5/3.5 serial 941XXX for
my leica IIIa. The glass is pretty good, but the aperture adjustment is
stiff enough to breaks my fingernails. Can the aperture be fixed to
operate smoothly and easily? Thanks for any advice.
