She has a lot of firearm disassembly and maintenance videos, and she knows what she's talking about. Not too hard to look at either. I like to see women doing this sort of thing.  Bill T.

She is a cutie ! 
The way I do it is to remove the takedown pin while the slide is still under pressure, then remove the spring, guide rod etc from the bottom, after the slide has been removed.
I understand that you can't do it that way with a full length guide rod, although I have never dealt with one myself.

Tom, can you still do it in the dark?

As the target or the firing weapon? Or maybe its the mortar version?

FQ, It's a variation on the SVD Dragonov sniper rifle that dates back to the 60'sIt's not exactly an AK but it's already a 600 yd rifle, and there are at least 2 variations of the concept on the surplus market.
%Red Jacket seems to specialize in Saiga products so they may start with this

There were also a bunch from Yugoslavia the M-70 I believe it was called that were available in 8mm for around $700 But I could not find a listing for them tonight.

Honestly she does a better job with her Springfield than I do with mine. All my .45's have scratches on them.

I got rid of that stupid screw in guide rod. It just worked loose after 100 or so rounds. I used the magazine lip to hold the spring down or a nice LaRue 45 tool that somebody gave me if I'm home at the bench.

Question: Why do the makers of 1911's melt on the edges of the pistol and sharpen the damn plug?

[tombogan03884]

So the wrench won't slip off and scratch the finish.
Or let things under spring tension go pinging across the room.

Nope, The new plug has a textured top and no sharp edges. 

Besides shooting the plug around the garage is one of the few games I get to play these days.
