As many of you, who I could get to listen to me know, I recently purchased a DWM Borchardt. I have been suitably warned not to try to take the gun apart for cleaning. As a matter of fact, I am too terrified to try it. But as a red blooded, flag waving, American gun collector, I want to do it. What I want to know is there a book out there I can study that will help me avoid making any terrific mistake? I wouldn't try it without studying the gun first (maybe not even then). I have been told that Datig had a description on how to do it in his book. I have been told to make sure that the gun is uncocked. I have also been told that if I screw with the spring that I am doomed. I'll never get it back together and there is no living creature who could help me. But that is about it. Outside of having every planet in the entire universe drop on my head and my living in shame in eternal fire for the rest of my being, what else could happen?
