Yes, the action did feel tight when removing it.  I first attributed it to a 
capstan on top of the action, or one of those little wood wedges that 
manufacturers stick in pianos to prevent action movement during shipment--only I 
didn't see anything!    And yes, it was weird that I couldn't get it back in.
