Having stripped down my Gletcher Nagant pistol to age it i thought i would take a few pictures and post them as they might be of some help,
The Nagant is quite easy to strip down the only awkward part being the trigger assembly fitting please excuse any poor spelling or poor photos
as these were taken on my phone and im just a mere grease monkey lol.
Left grip panel pulls off
After screws are removed i found it easier to take out the two allen head bolts from the left side of the frame before pulling off the right grip plate
Remove the loading latch screw to enable removal of the loading latch
Ejector should just pull out once the plate is removed
The cylinder retainer just pulls out
Remove the cylinder from the right side
The left frame panel may require a bit of levering to remove
The hammer assembly should just pull out easily
To remove the safety switch undo the screw in the centre whilst holding the safety lever still, CAUTION there is a very small O-ring here that may fall out and get lost
Removing the two small grip panels is easy as they just slide into the frame
The trigger assembly is under sprung tension , it should just pull out but may require a little levering
Once the trigger is removed the valve assembly should just pull out quite easily
The trigger is the hardest part to put back in place, the spring must sit ON TOP of the post as in the pic but is very problematic to fit. Also make sure the valve assembly is fitted first as part of the trigger sits on top of it.
