Bob et al, For lowering of the TD lever to insure that the receiver is out of battery, I find it easiest to have the toggle held open, before trying to lower lever. Even then, I may have to resort to a custom made tool that pushes down on the shank of the lever, rather than the checkered circular part that have been known to snap off. Reinstalling is best down with the barrelled reciever removed, so that as your pushing it in from the left side, you can push down on the right side, against the spring pressure, to aline it with the hole in the frame. If a new TDL spring is required, I do have DDR originals @$25 each. TH
