I would like to disassemble the bolt of my Mannlicher-Schonauer MCA 1961 model, to clean and degrease the striker/firing pin and lube it for cold weather operation. Anyone know how to do so?

  "The NRA Guide to Rifles and Shotguns" 1980 Edition, ISBN 0-935998-32-2 has the IPB & disassembly instructions for the 1950 Model Mannlicher-Schoenauer. Don't know if this will do you any good?
  
  go to www.bookfinder.com as the above is a paperback, you can usually pick up used copies inexpensively.

  Any copy of "The Shooters Bible" from the late 40s to the mid 60s has a page detailing the bolt disassembly. Stoeger was the importer of those FINE, FINE rifles until they were discontinued. If you can't find a copy handy, let me know and I'll dig out an old copy and post the information.

  Thanks for the suggestions! I have ordered a copy of the NRA Firearms assembly guide; I also found on a web-site instructions to disassemble the bolt, and I have already done so, and cleaned her up and reassembled. The rifle is indeed a jewel, and I look forward to taking her hunting this fall here in Pennsylvania.
