Model 1900 forearm removal

[Kirtsky]

Hi, forgot about Remington Society, and wasted a couple hours last night looking around for some info.

I have a very good condition 1900 sitting in my safe at home right now. The gun has no rust, just some shallow pitting in the barrels. But it does have a century of grease and oild and dirt congealed in the action.

I'm no stranger to firearms, and I know this forend is a snap type, but could someone tell me the right way to remove this forearm? Not taking any chances.

Thanks- Kirt

Put your fingers under the front of the forearm beteen the forearm and barrel and pull down. Jay Huber RSA

...and off she comes! Thanks!

There was more tension than I thought there should be and when I pulled it off, there was nice hardened solid packed grease in the forearm.
