Just purchased a pre-war Merkel OU with detachable sidelocks. Got it home, took it down, fired triggers against a block. Now it will not reassemble. Issue seems to be the fired cocking levers which no longer protrude. Any ideas how to reset them? If it were an LC, I would know what to do.

Joe,
If they don't protrude,they seem to be cocked, be sure the extractor is "out".

Take the locks off and re-cock them manually. Whilst the locks are off, you should be able to re-assemble the gun as the cocking levers will be free to move then. I have two Merkel O/U detachable sidelocks are they are lovely handling guns - quite unlike what the rather bulky looks would suggest!
