Can anyone show me any resources on disassembling this bolt?

I have a triggertech that is supposed to be drop-in but the safety won't engage.

The portion of the firing pin that rests on the sear is fitted from the factory (you can see where they remove material from the face). I'm wondering if mine was a bit on the edge of their allowable tolerances.

I have always felt like my guns safety was pretty difficult to manipulate but never put any thought into it until this triggertech wouldn't drop in without issue. Comparing the original trigger to the new one, virtually indistinguishable in the critical dimensions, so it must be something very close needing adjustment.

I think the safety has some kind of cam surface (you can actually see it pull the firing pin back a bit when turning) that doesn't quite engage when the replacement trigger is installed.

I can't add more material to the surface that rests on the sear so I have to open up the bolt and walk back the surface that the safety lever engages on.

Does that make sense?

Even if I'm mistaken, I would like to open it up and have a look.

Any help appreciated.
