my pump works really hard. I'm sure it needs a good cleaning. Anyone know how to get it taken apart?
What can I use to lube it once it's cleaned.
The problem gets worse the colder it gets
remove forend bolt and forend, push out the 2 pins and remove hammer/trigger assembly.
the metal tube between the action rails is the barrel block nut, there is a hole in it, insert a punch or metal rod into the hole and turn counterclockwise to loosen, remove.
slide barrel out till it clears the threaded stud, rotate 90 degrees so the barrel block clears the rails.and lift out.
Now slide bolt/carrier assembly out the front, remove action rails.
if you have the sling mounted to the forend they are probably slightly bent making them bind while cycleing the action, if not possibly bowed out from use.

7600, 742, ect all are the same they hammer the bolt face with the extractor and bolt face on the barrel. If it has been shot alot go to a local gunsmith and have it refaced. If you can't find one e-mail me and I will find one in your area to have this done. mikem@tls.net
well I have a vintage 1978 760, round count is in the thousands, push the slide release and it falls open, don't think his has a bolt face issue, have worked on a couple that were tight to cycle.

You totally lost me on this one. Are you refering to how it comes apart or are you telling me why it pumps hard?
I don't think there have been over that 200 rounds shot out of this gun since it was new.

I can't get this to turn. I'm getting on it pretty good and am afraid I will snap off my punch.
I got the gun apart. Here's what I found. There is a rubber o-ring in the tube that I unthreaded. The o-ring is sticking inside the tube. I'm wondering if the o-ring is swelled or softened to make it sticky instead of sliding. Can I get a replacement o-ring? Also what type of lube is suggested for the o-ring?
the rails slide on the outside of that tube if memory serves me correct, as for grease for an o-ring, industrial supply stores should have regular o-ring grease
