if its completely apart, tehre are soem tricks that I can throw out ahead of time.
1. The safety lever and pin, drive from down to up, us some needle nose pliers to half way hold in place and then tap, tap tap
2. The damn action spring (thats a wrong term, but my mind is blank); it will be a bear, wear glasses and be in a smalelr area, it will go boooooing and be hard to find if you do it in a shop or other "busy" area. I have a tool I bought from a member here that holds the end retainer with a sharpened screw driver and then has leverage. Without this, use your needle nose and against a table you don't mind denting and scratching
3. take your time, but most parts go in easily.
