Lefever question

[James Palmer]

I have a Lefever ejector 16 ga that shoots great and seems to be in solid working order. However, when trying to take apart I can’t get the barrels off.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Two hook? Small hook? Large hook?

Brian... I really don’t know Lefevers well so I don’t understand what you are asking?

Here are a few pics. Hopefully it helps. Everything works fine. Ejectors pop.

That is a Large Hook. The later design.

Usually these to not cause issues. And usually it is a matter of being gummed up and needing cleaning.
The barrels can be removed by taking the sideplates off and driving the cocking axle out, this freeing the hook. The hook will come out with the barrels. Then cleaning can be done.
