You can find other videos that take you through the general revolver tear-down out there on the web too if you have never gutted one.
The link to the video is in post #13 in this thread, plus detailed pics in post #14 - it doesn't get much easier than that.


For some of us, buying a S&W without the IL is not an option - my S&W 329PD is but one example. First thing I did with mine was purchase and install the Plug from BS.

And when I sent my 329PD back to the factory for warranty repair, I also sent S&W an unmistakable message about my opinion of their "lock": the IL went back to them in a bag in pieces. When my 329PD came back, the first thing I did, again, was install the Plug.

Good luck.
