    look at the top of the sleeve at about 11:00 youll see the indent for the detent,
    the tool really isnt needed, a drop of oil, an line them up and push hard.
    if you dont have the strength, with the tool, push the detent in and push the safety in at the same time.
    removing is done the same way, line them up and pull hard they come out..

    chuck,

    I appreciate the fact that even though you're a gunsmith by trade, you're willing to share some tips with us 03 bubbas when needed. Seems like good PR to me.

    thanks

    -Jeff L
