Hello all, as the subject says, I have a Model 97, solid frame type. I have searched all over for instructions on how to pull apart a solid frame Model 97. I know, there SHOULDN'T be any differences between a take-down and solid frame when it comes to the action dis-assembly . My issue is once I remove the carrier stop screw, the slide hook screw, and the carrier pin stop screw with the pin, the carrier should slide forward and down, resulting in it's removal. Mine will not for the life of me come apart from the slide hook and bolt. The gun operates freely and seems to function just fine but the carrier will not come out. Am I missing something here?? Any help would be great!! I even followed YouTube videos and Marauder's online manual. Nada, zip, zilch. It isn't dropping out for nothing.
