Sleazy. No, you don't really need it. A Spiller & Burr breaks down pretty easy.
First, turn the key in front of the cylinder until you can pull the cylinder pin out (unlatch the loading lever).
Pull the pin out. Now put the gun on half-cock and rotate the cylinder out to the right.
Put the hammer down.
Unscrew the short screw in front of the trigger guard. Tip the trigger guard up and take it off. (Might help to put the gun back at half-cock).
Unscrew the big screw that holds the trigger and cylinder bolt stop in place. Now take out the spring. Unscrew the two smaller screws on the left side of the frame (as it is with the barrel pointed away from you). Pull out the trigger and the cylinder bolt stop.
Remove the grips. Unscrew the hammer. Let it go up in the frame from the pressure of the spring. Now push the bottom of the spring to the right (or left, which ever is easier, you will put it back the same side). Wiggle the spring out.
Now lower the hammer through the frame. On the left side of the hammer is a small screw holding the hand to the hammer, unscrew it. Now pull the hand out, and be careful not to break the spring attached to it. Now pull the hammer out the TOP of the frame.
You now have the gun effectively stripped for working on it and cleaning the small parts.
You don't really need the book. (Colonel LeMat has been doing some very late April Fool's stuff on these forums lately)
It goes back together in reverse order.
The Doc is out now.
