I'm trying to tear down and rebuild a sadly sporterized 1918 dated LSA manufactured No. 1 Mk III* and have immediately run into problems trying to remove the butt - I can get the screw to turn about 1/8th of a turn and that's it. I've tried a few gentle taps with a mallet to loosen things up - also tried to get a little penetrating oil in there too...no success...is there some trick I'm missing, or is this just a "brute strength & ignorance" game and I need to turn up the effort? (Kind of embarassing to say "I can't turn a screw" but I thought I'd better check to see if I'm out to lunch before I really go to town and break something - like my wrist...). Any views would be welcome...
