P08 Disassembly Problem

[John D.]

Hi Robert....


FIRST - cover the side of the reciever (spring side) with a few layers of masking tape (in case the screwdriver slips!!!). Next a small jewelers screwdriver will fit under the "lip" of that spring.


Lift the leading edge of that spring enough to clear the detent in the bar...


Then push it forward (this is when the screwdriver typically SLIPS - scratching the reciever and poking a bloody hole in the palm of your other hand that is holding the reciever - so BE CAREFUL )


It will slide forward in the groves and release... From there - you can proceed to step 13....
