| M-11
Field Strip |
In this tutorial I used a M-11/NINE,
the general procedure should be similar for all M-11s.
Field stripping your M-11 is very easy. The
only tools you will need is your hands and a small screw
driver.
MAKE SURE YOUR GUN IS UNLOADED BEFORE DOING
THIS!!!!!
|
| Steps
1 through 3 |
| Step
1 |
| |
|
| First
deploy the collapsible stock until it locks into the open
position. This will get it out of the way if you wish
to disassemble the internals any further. NOTE: The M-11/NINE
pictured has the stock removed. |
| Step
2 |
| |
|
| Now
take a screwdriver, a bullet tip, or a wooden dowel (I prefer a pointed dowel so I don't scratch anything) and find the take down pin on your
M-11. It is located at the front of the gun on the lower. |
| |
Notice
how one side of the take down pin looks like what
is pictured to the right?
What
you want to do is take your dowel or tool and push
the “latch pin”, marked in green on
the photo, and push it towards the center (red
arrow). What this does is unlock the pin so it
can come completely out. |
|
 |
While
pushing the “latch pin”, marked in green,
towards the center (red arrow), push it down (blue
arrow) at the same time and use your tool to push the pin down through the hole and then take it out from the other side of the gun.
|
| With
the “latch pin” removed you can push
the take down pin “housing”, marked
in green, out of the receiver. The “housing”
only comes out in one direction so it is pretty
straightforward. |
|
| Try a "twist and pull" approach first, but if
the “housing”, marked in green, is to
hard to remove by hand, you can carefully lever it up with
the end of a screwdriver. Just be sure not to scratch
up the receiver when doing this. |
|
|
| Step
3 |
| |
|
Once the
take down pin is removed you can separate the upper
receiver, marked in purple, from the lower receiver,
marked in green. |
| To do
this grab onto the upper receiver and pull it forward
and up (red arrows). The upper receiver must clear
the rear section of the lower receiver for it to
separate. You may have to pull it a bit forward
before it will allow you to pull up. Pulling and holding the trigger may help also. |
