Surprised that the screws came out so easy and that the sideplate came off without any trouble.

No kidding! I've got a 1874 Commercial Russian that I can't get the screws loose even after soaking it for a week in ATF.
Really good job, Pam! That baby is screaming to be disassembled and cleaned. You can probably get a lion's share out with aerosol brake cleaner and some brass brushes, but the hammer really needs to come out so you can clean behind it. Again, it isn't hard and you seem pretty fearless. But I know guys that wouldn't have gone as far as you have.
