After removing the bayonet brace and taken the magazine tube out of the receiver and I thought now I should be able to turn the barrel and yoke assemble 90 degrees and remove but I can't get it to budge.
Then I read somewhere that Canfield has written that the military versions of the model 97 were made so they can't be taken apart like the normal civilian model 97. Is he right?
Help will be appreciated.
Also, on the right side of the yoke assembly is what looks like a little lever between the barrel and magazine tube. What is the purpose of that?
