How do you remove the forearm of a savage model 24d series p?

removal of the fore arm is a simple enough task. grasp the barrel just above the forearm and grasp the tip of the forearm and pull it may be hard but it will come away. to replace the fore arm seat the bottom into the frame and be shure the spring retainer is in the nitch and perss back together. please watch your hand placement to be shure when the forearm "snaps" back into place you dont get pinched as the snaping into place is quite sudden and energetic.
