I’ve got TM 9-250 but the part of removing the breech block is not as straightforward as it reads at least with my breech. The lever arm shaft seem to be locked in, I’ve tried various position of the block but it won’t move. Can some please let me know what I’m doing wrong. Thanks
Also looking for the for the trigger if anyone has one?

Re: 37mm breech block dismantling
had same problem with an M6 ring/block: in that case the firing pin spring, carrier, and cap needed to be removed; then depress the sear onnhte side of hte block and then it popped out of the bottom of the ring!
check out this M6 manual....
