There is only one reason to ask that question and that is to discredit anyone you disagree with.

Only three of us advised against it. Dean has made his position clear, so I'll go next.

I think I was pretty clear that most of my experience was with the 552.
What I did not say, because it wasn't relevant to the discussion was that I did not fully dissemble the 742 but I did suggest that I had not.

I also did not say that my reason for not fully dissembling the 742 was that I did not need to and because the factory owners manual advised against doing so.
Again because I don't see how that is relevant to the discussion.

And because I don't consider factory service manuals hearsay.

Next I expect you will ask about my gunsmithing qualifications.

Fair question.

I've been repairing and altering rifles and shotguns for over forty years.
I am largely self taught but have an extensive library to help me and an above average mechanical aptitude.

I do not do gun repair or alterations for pay and seldom do work for others.
The majority of my experience comes from working on my own firearms.
