39-2 Takedown Issues
I acquired a very nice Mod. 39-2 last month, 98% with the box and documents. Took it apart for inspection and cleaning with no issues.
Today, for the first time, I got a chance to shoot it and see how it performed. Got home and prepared to take it down for cleaning.
Took a look at the youtube video again for a refresher course. Pulled the slide back, lined up the slot in the slide with the take down pin. Couldn't push it out without the use of the plastic handle of a gun cleaning tooth brush.
Got the pin out but, can't get the slide to separate from the frame by sliding it forward. It moves about an inch and locks up. Put the take down pin/lever back in and it functions fine.
WHAT THE HECK AM I DOING WRONG?
Thank you in advance for your answers and assistance!
Frustrated in TN!
