  The army has a TM (Training Manual), the number excapes me right now, that gives an IPB (Illustrated Parts Breakdown) and explicit instruction on disassembly/reassembly along with material requirements. This is still one of the best references available for the novice. Most gunshops have a few copies available or can steer you to them. Perhaps even surplus stores or used book sellers.

  The National Rifle Association sells a booklet that has the information that you want. It has an exploded diagram, disassembly instructions, & reprints of several relevant articles; it is only a few $.
