Field Stripping the Taurus Thunderbolt

[quilcene]

Just got a new Taurus Thunderbolt which I fired a few times and now want to strip down, throughly clean and polish out some of the tool marks to make it pump smoother. However when I stripped it down I can not get access to the Locking Block Pin in order to remove the Locking Block and then remove the bolt. Does anyone know how to do this? There is supposed to be a small hole on the left side of the receiver to be used to tap out the pin but there is no hole. Any ideas?

The Taurus doesn't have a drift pin like a Colt.  If you have the gun apart look at where the locking lugs connect to the bolt.  You will see a music wire clip.  Pull it off and the lugs will come off the bolt.
