Savanahsdad, thanks for the tip about the bolt. The button was gunked up a bit. I think a thorough cleaning of the bolt will help too. How do you disassemble it?
remove bolt from gun , push the button up , it's stiff , I just use a rag and push with my thumb . some guys use a small wood block , I guess this depends on how strong your thumbs are , it will snap up and forward , when I say up I don't mean out, , you are going to push the button so it follows the cut-out on the bolt , the button dose not come out at this point , this uncocks the firing pin , now the spring is not full cocked, and you can remove the screw from the rear of the bolt ,(flat blade on old ones & hex head on newer guns ) it is a standard right hand thread ( rightie tighty , lefty lossie ) after screw is removed , bolt handle will slide off , if it is gummed up or rusted you may need to lightly tap it , now there is a sleeve with a slot that has a hole at one end this has to be slid so the hole is under the button , now just left the button out , and the firing pin will now come out with the sleeve , at this point with the firing out if you want you can slid out the pin in back of the bolt lugs and remove them to for a good cleaning and lube (I use gun grease on the lugs) make sure you lay out everything the way you took in apart , now after you have it back together you will need to re-cock the firing pin by pushing the button back and down , , again I just use a rag and my thumb , however I have done this many , many times , you may want to use a wood block or a brass pin , how ever you do it, is up to you, but it has to be cocked before it can go back in the action ,
Now.. I don't know if you're a nuts a bolts kind of guy , I do know I'm no teacher or writer , so if this is not clear enough for you , please ask before you start , what's easy for me may not be for others , I'm starting to think I'm the only one on here that can run a Lee LoadMaster press
LOL..
