    I've never had one go on me but powered graphite might be worth a try, it's worked in the our door locks at home when they've become very hard to turn. Put some on the key and slide it in and out a few times.

    Then again it might be the key itself, have you tried another key assuming you have one?

    or you might have to get a locksmoth to set a new barrel for you
