390/3901 disassembly question

[GoRon]

I would like to remove the breech bolt to clean.

The barrel and gas system is removed.

The manual says to let the breech come forward to a rest and remove the cocking handle.

How do you remove the cocking handle?

Just pull on it real hard:neener:

I was trying not to force anything :o

Thanks a bunch :)

The first time you remove a bolt handle, it will typically put up a pretty good fight. After a few times, though, it'll know the drill and play along. After a while, though, it may decide that it wants to leave on it's own.

Kinda like the puppy I'm training right now. :cuss: :D
