I inadvertently posted this question on the general forum a couple days ago without realising there was a gunsmith forum.

I am trying to remove the top from a 1930 Montgomery Ward Westernfield Deluxe sxs. This model seems identical to the Nitro Special and looking at Numrich there is no schematic for it but the parts are identical.

Any help removing the top lever would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
