Just FWIW, I've had good luck, loosening the old "ball" screw, by trying to turn it in the tightening direction(CW) before trying to loosen it. Worked within the past couple years on the spanner type and the simple straight-slot screw. A spanner can be made from a large screwdriver, just saw and file to fit the holes. MY favorite shotgun!

Does anyone know if anybody lost any money on the unsuccessful plan?
