WARNING, the Remington 66 was never designed to be disassembled. Remington gave warning to make no attemt to take one apart. Gunsmiths that have worked on them have invented an entire new list of swear words. I have seen more guns damaged by improper cleaning than from neglect. Most guns dont need to be disassembled to clean. Simply clean the barrel, then squirt one of the many gun cleaming products in the action and let it soak. Then use a q-tip, plastic pick and toothbrush and you should be fine. I just put back togeather a Winchester model 1887 built in 1889 that the owner took apart to clean and couldnt reassemble. The gun had never been disassembled since it was new. So if a blackpowder shotgun can hunt for 113 years, I doubt yours is in that much need.
