Can't get 93 Ranger ignition switch out!!!(key and cylinder)

[MajorTom]

I bought a sweet little 2.3 L 93' Ranger and have not had any problems -
until following replacing the starter, (which I suspect was original) turned key and felt like mush , no position clicks or anything, trying to remove it by reading the manual (which is actually decent) but the "actuator switch" that is supposed to release the cylinder won't budge,
any locksmiths out there ???
