Anyone tried it? Gotta say the instructions online aren't very encouraging. The Uberti I picked up last week is a great shooter, got to try it out this weekend, but it is a 1993 rifle and looking at what I can see in the receiver it has never been disassembled and cleaned. I need to get in there and get the gunk out, but disassembling the linkage is a bit worrisome. Looks like a lot of pins to fall out and lose. Is it as bad as the instructions I've found make it out to be?
If this is as bad as taking apart a '92 Rossi, I don't think I want to do it!! That rifle almost flew out the window!! Once I got the hang of it....still took about 2 hours to assemble!
