Must you hold back the battery to remove the action?

VN Vet,
If I understand your question, the answer is yes. To disassemble the receiver from the frame, you must "hold back" the barrel/receiver group so that you can turn the locking bolt down, remove the side plate and slide the receiver forward off of the frame. The easiest way for a beginner to hold back the barrel/reciever is press the muzzle against a solid surface until the receiver moves fully to the rear (about 1/4") and rotate the locking bolt down. This is of course done with an UNLOADED gun and the magazine removed.
Also, the holdopen only works when the magazine is empty.
