What's the easiest firearm you've ever disassembled?

Ruger 10/22 is very easy, as is the 1911. A .22 cal Stoeger Luger was decidedly unpleasant, as was an attempt at a Walther G22.
 
AK-47. I can have it as completely apart as you'll ever need to take it in a matter of seconds. If you really want the trigger group off, too, I can do it in a few more seconds. Now, cleaning the AK is another story, but disassembly is fast and painless.

The Makarov is simple to field strip, but if you REALLY want to go beyond basic field stripping, it's going to take a while and be a bit of work.

However, the simplest firearm I've ever seen to get at the inner workings has to be the Tokarev pistol, hands down. Either field strip it like a 1911, or simply pop the slide stop out and quick-disassemble it that way. Then the whole firing mechanism lifts out as a complete unit, allowing it to be worked on completely outside the gun.
 
The only things I've taken completely apart are my Ruger 10/22 and 1858 Remington (replica). Of the two I'd say the 1858 is the easiest.

I have taken apart everything except the trigger mechanism on a Mosin-Nagant. It's extremely easy, and the bolt even doubles as its own takedown tool.
 
Found this in the grave yard!

I don't own a Glock, but from the youtube videos I've been watching, that thing is the only one I have seen that I feel confident I could completely disassemble and put back together! Maybe the Steyr M & S A1 series and the Caracal's are the same too.

I went from that vid to a full disassembly of the super easy field strip Beretta PX4 and realized the value in the simplicity of a glock. The PX4 is one of the easiest to field strip only by a margin (no slight slide movement required like many), but full break down requires a lot!
 
Toss up between AK47, and Sig P220.

Did the AK all the way to the trigger group blindfolded, and put it back together, so I guess the AK get's it. The grip took the longest, trying to get the screw lined up right, so I guess if that's the biggest problem, they've got something right.
 
M16A1, 1911,ruger1022, and browning buckmark, and Taurus pt99, and all revolvers.
 
That depends on if you're talking about field stripping or detail stripping. Field stripping, the Glock (and similar) takes it. Detail stripping, I gotta go with the 1911 (with the noted exception of my springfield micro-compact, which doesn't like to give up its thumb safety)
