b. Insert the small end of breech plug wrench handle (or suitable nail) into
the “disassembly hole” in the striker/cocking piece assembly to hold it in the
rear position (Figure 19). NOTE: The pin should be as close as possible in
size to the hole diameter, and at least 2 inches long so that it can be used to
‘lever’ the cocking piece to the rear when reassembling the bolt stop
assembly into the bolt.
Do not use a soft paper clip, etc. Note that if you use
the breech plug handle as the bolt disassembly pin, you will be unable to use
the breech plug wrench to remove the breech plug until you reassemble the
bolt.
CAUTION: The bolt sleeve assembly is intended to be a permanent
assembly and should not be disassembled. The parts are under great
spring pressure and if disassembled could fly apart with sufficient force to
cause serious injury. Also, special tools are required to correctly
reassemble this part.
