The internal parts of the gun handle may be inspected or serviced if necessary.
The gun handle consists of two halves that are held together with a collar on each end.
To open up the handle:
1.Turn the collars approximately 60 degrees coun- terclockwise (the same direction as removing a right hand thread) until the collar reaches a stop.
2.Pull the collar off the gun handle.
NOTE: If the collars are difficult to turn, position the gun handle against a corner, place a screwdriver against the tab on the collar and give the screwdriver a sharp blow to turn the collar past an internal locking rib. See Figure D.3.
