I have seen a reference to "how to clean a lever action", but I have looked all over and can't find it.  Is there a slick way to clean the action without taking the gun completely apart?  Maybe something like spraying with carb cleaner and blowing out, etc.??  Thanks in advance!

Hi, Zoonie:
  Just pulling the bolt & ejector is enough for cleaning the barrel. If you go the spray route, remove the butt stock and stand it up overnight so it drains. Relube with Outers Tri-Lube. Further disassembly instructions are here:
