I have never bought into the idea of drilling holes in the stock of an LC to install this screw, a small nail-set polished on the tip works well, after all the maker didn't have to drill the stock.

The trick to removing a Fox toplever is to make a tool to depress the return spring before removing the connecting screw, after that it is easy. My own thoughts are that a Parker is the easiest action to disassemble as long as you have screwdrivers that fit, but then I have done a lot of them.

Measure the thickness of a Fox action between the top of the action flats and the cutout for the cocking arms, very thin, it kind of reminds me of a Flues Ithaca. ( really going to get some flak for that statement)


I learn something every day, and a lot of times it's that what I learned the day before was wrong
