Another little hint would be to make some "drift pins" with the same diameter as the trigger block pins that hold everything together. Make them just short enough that you can tap them into the existing pins and "drift" them out. And short enough where you can back the internals out with the compressor while they're inside the trigger block. If you don't, when re-assembling the action, you'll have a hard time re inserting the pins through the trigger block/saftey slide. "Drift them out, and Drift them back in"!! I've found that lesson to be a major PITA from past experiences!!!! The 34 is an easy gun to work on,....and alot easier with the drift pins too. HTH's tjk
