Anyone know how to remove the ejectors?

There's what looks like a screw under them but it has a thread inside it rather than a hex hole.

I'm refinishing the gun but if I'm going to blue it the ejectors need to come out first

It has been a long time since I've had one apart, and I do not recall the thread dims.

IIRC a screw is threaded into the Ejector Retainer and then used either as a "handle" to lift the Retainer or screwed in further to draw the Retainer upwards.

Thanks for the info. I couldn't find a screw small enough to thread in but I managed to lift the retainers out with a pick while pushing the ejector in.

Now onto the receiver disassembly with lots of pictures so I can get it back together LOL
