I have been putting this off for a while but decided that today was the day to field strip my Ruger. I know it's not supposed to be fun and it is not. I got as far as trying to pull the bolt retainer out and couldn't get past that.
They say pull hard. I did. They say it can be tight. It is. They say it requires force. It does. I have pulled about as hard as I can on it using every method possible and it will not come out. I can feel it slip maybe a couple of millimeters and can tell it starts to come out but after a couple of millimeters won't budge.
I am scared I am going to break something. Anyone else run into this? If so any suggestions before I give up?
Thanks
