Scott.
Try a little "Break Free CLP" on the outside of the slide. It will wick in and may free things up. I've had this on a number on gun and it was a simple lub fix.

Scott,
No real tricks to NId disassembly.
1. Triggerguard screw and guard removal.
2. Top tang and bottom tang screw.
3. 2 Trigger plate screws.
4. Trigger plate and assembly removal.
5. Everything comes appart.

I've only had one NID apart, a 20g, but it required that I remove the sears to get the action out of the stock. Removing the triggerplate alone, would not do it. It was a single trigger gun, so that may have had something to do with it also. Seems to me the last time I took a Parker apart it was the same requirement...the sears had to come out before the action would come out of the stock. But, it's been so long, I can't recall clearly.

Default NID Saftey

Scott be very carful when the floor plate comes off, as a small spring is easy to fall out, so find the spring before you turn the gun right side up. It sits in a hole in the middle of things, easy to see. Its function is to hold the top lever over.
Our man "Researcher Noreen" found me a #4 grade 2 7/8" ten at the big Reno Gun Show a few years back, this damn gun likes to hang the safety every once in a while. Last spring after a crow shoot I found a burr on the safety mast and just maybe I have it fixed.
I have and shoot a few of these NID tens, and I really do recomend that you glass bed the head of the stock while you have the gun apart. Good Luck

Default NID Safety

Scott: When I shoot light loads in the tens it is with 12 Ga. factory shells and Gauge Mates. The patterns are always very tight. Even the 1 7/8 oz 12 Loads shoot tight in the tens.
I have 327 Alcan 10 Ga. Brass cases that are dedicated to this short NID Ten. I started loading and shooting these shells back in the late 1950s. (Old habits die hard) When I want very tight patterns I will cut the shot cup off from a Sami one or BPD wad and place it on top ot the last fiber wad in the load and fill with buffer and shot. I shot them all empty last spring on the Crows. As I get older I may now need a bigger pattern in order to hit things. HA HA. When "old blackie" folds up with multiple hits at long range it tickles my funny bone. So Scott you keep up the good work with those ten ga. shotguns. Good Luck
