I get a lot of blowback into the action of my Burgess rifle from black powder loads so I decided to strip it for a thorough clean. There are no stripping hints in the user manual so I have written my own set, incorporating an exploded diagram and parts list. Stripped to the major components the action looks like this:

The lever and toggle link just pulls out through the carrier but beware of the detent ball and spring waiting to jump out at you.
The instruction .pdf is too big to attach here but pm me if you want a copy.
