HELP: Colt Frontier Scout .22 disassembly

[on-ca]

Hello fellow members.

Would anyone know how to disassemble the barrel off one of these for maintenance purposes?

Sincerely,

That would be an unusual thing to do for maintenance.

It has been a long time since I worked on one but the barrel is screwed into the frame with a right hand thread. There may be a small pin through the frame that would require removal before trying the barrel. Of course you would remove the ejector housing first and the cylinder. Clamp the barrel in a vice using a barrel bushing that fits well and a wrench on the frame as close to the barrel as you can apply it.

Go easy, the frame is easy to twist on these. - dan

Why do you have to remove the barrel?
