It worked! Yeah, it did feel like it would take a cutting torch, but a few good wacks of the muzzle on my carpeted floor worked like a charm. Trigger fell forward and the mainspring housing swung free. This time I paid more attention to orientation on reassembly and it cycles pefectly - only evidence of trouble is my personalized marring on the grip. Thanks for your help gentlemen!
