For MOST- make sure rifle is unloaded. Open bolt, draw to the rear. Press and HOLD trigger, and slide the bolt out of the rifle.
Make sure it is unloaded. Then lift the bolt handle and slide it to the rear. There is a small lever on the rear left of the gun, pull this outward from the front. With it pulled out finish sliding the bolt out of the action.
Make sure the firearm is unloaded, remove bolt by moving it to the rear and pulling the trigger. Next remove the stock takedown screw. This is all that is required for cleaning, however the mag can be disassembled by removing the forward retaining pin and the feed lips can be removed by by taking out the screw in front of the trigger.
Make sure the gun is unloaded. Raise the bolt, then squeeze the trigger while pulling the bolt to the rear. I've never seen a bolt action where this didn't work.Answerlook on the left Sid of the barell and there should be a screw loosen it up and the bolt will slide out.
For a rifle or shotgun- Make SURE the firearm is unloaded, and action cocked (so that firing pin is not protruding from face of bolt). Insert a cleaning rod into the barrel, mark rod at the muzzle, withdraw, measure from tip of rod to mark. Pistol- same way. Revolver- Hold a flat strip of material (thin metal works) across the rear of the barrel (start of the forcing cone) Insert rod into barrel from the muzzle, slide until it touches the material. Mark rod, withdraw, measure. I DID say make SURE the firearm is unloaded.
Average what? Hand gun? Long Gun? Type of action? Single shot? Semi-Auto? Bolt Action? Broad answer - 5-100+
For many, open the bolt. Check that it is unloaded. Depress and hold trigger, and slide bolt out of gun. However, other have a different technique. Mauser rifles have a blt release on the right side of the frame. A Remington 660 has a small tab you depress with a screwdriver, etc. We could give you a better answer if we had the make and model of rifle.
make sure gun is unloaded (of course) & squeeze trigger while sliding bolt back, it will slide right out... squeeze trigger to replace bolt also.
Make sure the safety is on and visually check to make sure that the firearm is unloaded always keep the chamber open and never look down the barrell
