GUN HANDLE PARTS
The gun handle consists of two halves that are held
together with a collar on each end. To open up the
handle, turn the collars approximately 60 degrees
counter-clockwise until the collar reaches a stop. Then
pull the collar off the gun handle. If the collars are diffi-
cult 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.
