Full Disassembly:
Trigger Group and Breechblock
It is not necessary or recommended that the
trigger group or breechblock be removed
except if a malfunction occurs, or if the
action becomes excessively dirty or wet. If
this occurs, disassemble the action for a
complete cleaning as explained below.
Detailed cleaning procedures are outlined
under “Cleaning and Maintenance” on page

breechblock assembly and the trigger group.
Any disassembly beyond this should only be
performed by a competent gunsmith.
ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN
PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE OR
DISASSEMBLY.
