I've never removed the TG on my model 87, I would like to inspect it and clean as required. On an 870, it's a matter of pushpins. On the Ithaca, there are a couple of set screws on each side of the receiver towrds the top, plus a large screw nearer the trigger guard. This screw won't budge, and I dont want to force it (nothing worse than a buggered screw.) Does anyone know the steps to removing an Ithaca TG?

Thanks
