I am by definition a tinkerer.

Taken apart a lot of guns, LC's, Auto 5's, 1100, Model 12's etc. I even put them back together again. but I am stumped with my pre 25,000 serial number G grade Lefever. The hammers are on the action and the locks on the side plates. How do you get it back together? I am replacing a Lever Spring, (Help there also appreciated) and had to make a new rear screw. I had the guard tig'ed I and dilled and taped a new hole for my new screw. The old screw was broken and epoxied, along with the trigger guard, in place. I can make a screw, but am stumped with putting the darn thing back together.

Meanwhile back at my old familar LC Smiths. The forend on my specialty grade ejector (banjo release) doesn't lock in place. It snaps on but can be pulled off. I found this out in the middle of a round of Sporting Clays this morning. Hard to hold on to a splinter forend that pops off, especially with a broken thumb! How do I fix this?

Thanks in advance.
