You're welcome Steve. The #9 smell is extra - because you have to buy it from Bruno Shooters Supply (he has the OLD formula #9 with Nitrobezine.)
clang - If I had a copier or scanner I'd send you a copy of the one I bought. It was very useful when replacing the buffer(#1 thing to do - push out and push in the new one) & the recoil and firing pin springs in my SX-1, although it really isn't too hard to pull one down and put it back together (not as easily as an 1100, but not too bad).
IIRC - Remove the forend & barrel keeping the parts in order as you remove them. The magazine spring retainer just prys out. Then remove the pad, unscrew the stock bolt and pull off the stock, push out the pin in the side to remove the trigger assembly, pull out the bolt handle, and then figure out how to depress the recoil follower while you manuever the link clear and get the bolt out of the receiver. Punch out the pin in the recoil tube assembly if you're replacing the recoil spring and/or follower or just replace the whole assembly with a $100 stainless one from Wright's/Brownell's. There are stainless magazine tubes available as well if the original gets rusty.
I can't describe how to get the bolt apart or the trigger assembly. But if I did it almost anybody should be able to.
Somebody correct me if I've goofed.
You would think the instructions would be on the web. I figured for sure that Steve's pages would have them - nope.
