Find the process on youtube. It's more than two screws on a model 92.

Yeah, got to pull it all apart as the lever is pinned through the bolt.

i received the lever from Steve and am in the process of installing it. i have a few emails sent to Steve for help with the installation but all told it is pretty easy so far.

as a follow up, i did have problems with the cartridges chambering and after i asked Steve (Gunz) he thought i needed to take a bit more metal off the part that engages the lifter. he also suggested pinning the two levers together and looking for the differences. after we talked i did notice that the new lever didn't open quite as far as the old one. it was not getting that last push to get the round up to loading height. i'll add a pic to show what i mean. thanks again Steve Gunz! the 3/4 lever he sells is beautiful and well worth the investment.
