The receiver frame is an example of something I wish I could do, but I lack the specific tools and experience to do it. The outside cleaned up well. I'd love to remove those plunger screws and get the firing pins and springs out for a cleaning, but you can see that someone else has already bungled that screw slot a little bit. I don't have the right sized driver in my set for this slot, so I'm not going there. I'd also love to get to the innards because I can feel them working smoothly and well, but I know there's rust in there. I'd love to remove the top lever so I could clean under it better. But I'm not going there. I believe this receiver is really sound, and could probably function just fine if the barrels were okay, but I'm not the one to strip it.
