Agreed on dousing everything the thinnest penetrating oil you have and let sit for a few hours.
Then popping off the sideplate and firing pin. Leave out the hammer and hammer spring.
get an x-acto blade and push the projectile into the forcing cone.
Using a rubber mallet, gently tap the cylinder open. Hopefully everything is lubed up and slides open quickly.
On second thought. Just pay a gunsmith for the headaches.

Remember to ask if your smith replaced the hammer block
