Here goes: Open lever part way, seeing that chamber is empty remove the screw that retains the lever to the action. Now keep opening the lever and bring the bolt to the rear. Drop lever out and pull bolt out, hold down on the hammer while doing this. On the inside of the frames left side is an ejector, it fits in a slot with a knob projecting into the appropiate hole in the receiver, set this aside. The firing pin is of a two piece design, push the short rear piece up and use a punch to push the whole assembley for ward. The firing pin should protrude through the front of the bolt. If it does, I don't think there is anything wrong with the FP. Now to reassemble just reverse the order, Make Sure you get the ejector in the proper position. I hold back on the hammer when inserting the bolt, once it is properly lined up slide the bolt in far enough to depress the ejector. Insert the lever up through the slot and make sure it engages the bolt, you can operate it slowly to make sure. Now replace the lever screw. I'v done this a couple of hundred times, but get a mental blocktryint to put it in writing. Good Luck it's not that hard.
