Next time I'll take it outside and use the hose and hope that it works afterwards,

Ruger standard and a Remington 550-1.
Supposedly a 550-1 is almost impossible to put together. I know a fellow who sent his back to the factory.
I've never taken mine down. I give it the solvent/air hose/lube/air hose routine. It still runs like a charm.
I would like to try one sometime. I always like puzzlesThe rifle that has the most "can you put this back together" gunsmith requests.
I enjoyed taking these apart. That sideways trigger thing is interesting and a lot of different looking Arrangements in that German engineering
I'm With You CD. Have not had any trouble with Ruger the NAA or the FN Baby Browning. I bet it's easier to find a spring that went flying off the 120 MM M1 A1 than the NAA. My old fat fingers are challenged by those mouse guns.I enjoy a challenge. Never had any issues with a Rem 66 or Ruger Auto pistols. But then again work daily on Miniguns and heavy weapons as a armorer/gunsmith. Biggest gun disassembled is a 120mm off the M1A1 tank and 30mm GAU-23 Bushmaster II on the AC-130W. Smallest guns are the NAA mini revolvers and FN Baby Browning.
