Yazel in-line pistol question

joelaw99 · January 21, 2023, 02:15 PM

I have a .36 cal. Yazel i bought from (kwhi43) phil piburn years ago that i still haven’t fired. I’m retired now and have time to shoot. My question is, does anyone know if you need to do anything special to remove the striker assembly from the rear other than unscrewing it? Seeing as it has the weird cocking process. Also, are the nipples part of the breech or separate on these? I cant tell by looking, the ling where they meet is so fine it could be either way...

Also, does anyone still know if phil is still with us? I thought he may have passed, as he was always posting on here. But after checking, the last post i found was 2017.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, Joe

Why not get a hold of Mike Yazel. Go to the NMLRA - I believe he's an officer in the association.
