Thank you both for the help. Indeed the forearm pulled off as the help suggested. I also need more help now. In trying to take the stock off I also ran into a problem. The screws are removed and the stock starts to slide out but then apparently hangs up on the safety. The safety slide lifts up slightly as I try to remove the stock the remainder of the way and apparently prevents the removal of the stock. Since I do not want to force it, any suggestions on what I am doing wrong? Also now that I can see the serial numbers clearly I realize the numbers start with 366xxx so it must be a later gun from the 20s.
Thanks, Al
