How to remove the threaded sleeve aft?
I was looking for info on how to remove the threaded sleeve aft, so I can remove the breech. What kind of screw is used to hold the threaded sleeve to the frame?

Yes, that’s exactly the knob I have. Thx for all the helpful tips moneyshot. I didn’t have to remove the knob after all, but now if I ever need to, I know how.
do you have the knob that is 1 piece,(screw base, hollow main body with slots cut, and a rubber sleeve cover?
if so, it is a chore, but it can be removed. take the rubber sleeve off. if necessary, apply a bit of heat to the metal body, but not ridiculous.
i use slip-joint pliers, and lefty loosey.
perhaps a bit of clp or penetrant will help loosen it a bit, the oem delrin breeches seem to be a touch undersize regarding the hole, and are a chore to remove and replace the knob.
if you get it off, please lat me know before you reinstall, if you go too deep, you can create a hairline crack and blow the breech(yes, i did it.)
thats partly why i run a d100 aluminum unit now…

It could, if it was possible to unscrew the cocking knob, it doesn’t move even a micro meter and im not sure, if using more raw power wont damage/bend the cocking knob (it doesn’t look anything like the one on

i have to ask as always,
cant it come out front? 😕
Last time I removed the breech I got stuck because I followed the instructions at
http://www.stealthresource.org/home.htm
and only shows one screw. I found out that there is a second screw underneath the trigger guard plate. After I removed the second screw everything came out easily.
I hope it helps.
Thx,
Alessandro

It is much easier to remove the knob and barrel and pull it out the front. IMHO
