Got your drwg. sling disconnect from JCJ, Jeff. Thanks. No trouble with disassembly except the lock screws a bit buggered. Ed's Red (or any tranny fluid I suppose) is a good penetrant. Worked on mine very fast to break the friction lock on the bolt heads. The "slope" on the tang bolt heads combined with the deep counterbores is a bit much as you tend to throw the driver off-axis and they cant outbd. a bit and that may have influenced my effort also as I didn't know that until after I "stowed" the bolts back in the tang with the lock screw. Dien't cam out but raised a slight ridge on one of the tang screws. It'll burnish back into place or break off. I really didn't have any trouble getting the trigger plate out after I spotted the vestigial "tang" aft. The one shown in JC's parts list is a long tang for strait stock. It's really odd to see a long tang detached from a trigger guard. And those "screen-door closers" in the bar for the in-line strikers are different. That break lever does a lot of work (actually ALL the work). I think JC has a catalog illustration of the pin spanner tool that was meant to release the springs and the striker shafts, Serban. Also shows a driver bit with a slight convexity to the edge. I'm wondering if that's the one for the lock screws? They are so small and with the effects or previous removal sort of hard to tell.
