Kirby Hoyt told me a trick to disassemble the Ideals a little easier. That is, one should unscrew the bar screws (8) that hold the coil springs (7) that power the firing pins and release that pressure from the cocking lever. You would need a special tool with two little legs that would fit into the two holes of the screws. You can cut it from a wider screwdriver head.
