They are much more difficult to assemble and disassemble than most guns are. think twice before you proceed, you REALLY need to know what you are doing to work on these. If you go ahead with it, do NOT try to force the top lever back in place using the screw to align with the hole in the plate when you reassemble- you'll easily damage relatively fragile parts and parts are getting VERY hard to find. this is the kind of thing where you'll end up shipping the gun away in pieces to get it fixed by someone who knows what they are doing.

#LC SMITH SHOTGUN PARTS DIAGRAM HOW TO#
This is not for the faint of heart or the inexperienced, and I suspect since you had to ask the question of how to remove the stock that you are likely in over your head and should seek help from a QUALIFIED gunsmith (there are few left who know how to work on an LC). You'll likely need to drill a hole in the stock and make a tool to push the tensioned top lever back in place. This is easy to remove, VERY hard to put back in. *** VERY Important note- top lever is under significant tension from the top lever spring. You should then be able to remove the stock. Open the top lever and remove that screw. You'll screw it up, and it won't fit right again. Remove the screw holding the trigger plate and the small screw holding the top lever in place***. Take the firing pins out (if they didn't fall out already). Midwest Gun Works Gunsmiths can offer you the knowledge and skill that your Smith & Wesson firearm deserves.
