M2 takedown, can't get bolt out???

Is there a more detailed manual online for the M2? I'd like to know specifically what to clean after using the gun. How do I get the bolt out? Is there anything I should NOT use oil on?

 

btw, I absolutely LOVE this gun. I blasted up some dove in Texas this past weekend. Softest shooting 12ga I've ever shot.

 

Thanks all in advance.

So, after removing the barrel, I just release the bolt, muscle the bolt handle out, and then I'm good? I just feel a little uncomfortable using a pliers to yank the bolt handle out. What holds it in?

Thanks.

The bolt handle is secured by a pin & spring that are pinned into the bolt.

 

They are tight at first.

 

I usually just armstrong it, but sometimes I use a needlenose pliers to lever it out.

 

Some use the shoelace trick.

 

Search here, it's been addressed many, many, times.....

Depends on how much shooting and how you take care of your guns. I like to take it apart and clean the barrel and wipe the bolt, wipe out all fouling from the inside of the receiver with a good CLP like Breakfree.Put it back together and put a good rust preventive on the outside like Corrosion X or Break Free CLP and lube the bolt rails lightly. Good to go I do this every outing and at the end of the season I will clean the bolt and plunger unless I get it wet then it all gets cleaned and dried out.Tucker had a good post on cleaning the SBEII I'll try to find it and post it.It's what I have and pretty sure will work for all Benellis.
