Ive been trying to get this darn operating rod off the rifle for two hours now. Ive read and re-read the manual, searched the internet, and still nothing. Any suggestions/walk-throughs on how to get this thing off? Thanks. |

I kinda had the same issues, I ultimately just rattled it around until it came out and when it did, it came out smoothly. I know that's really no help, but maybe it's some consolation that someone else had the same problem and yet finally go it apart. As hard as it was to get apart, I feared that it would be equally difficult to get back together, but it went back together very easy. ETA - missed you by 20 seconds |

-Rest your rifle on the left side of the receiver with the muzzle pointing to your left. -Line up the rear of the op rod with almost the rear of the takedown slot. -Put your left index finger under the op-rod, just to the left of the clip guide. the end of your finger should be contacting the roller-cam guide slot. -Place your right hand/finger behind the op-rod charging handle. (The surface that is the bottom of the handle when the rifle is right side up). -Using your left index finger, apply upward pressure on the op-rod, then with your right hand, pull the charging handle towards your body (up-in relation to the rifle). Try wiggling if its stubborn. |
