My old NRA guide to firearms assembly states, "Since reassembly of bolt spring guide, buffer washers and buffer, and bolt cannot be accomplished without factory tools, disassembly of the bolt is not recommended and should only be attempted by a skilled gunsmith with the proper tools at hand." I found the book after I got it back together.

Sometimes it's better not to know what you can't do.

There's a good video on you tube on how to disassemble a 1907/10 but nothing on how to put it back together.


Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.
