Hello folks,
I'm trying to take apart an older type AA Maglite and I can't seem to remove the focusing assembly. I see that there's a lock spring in there that keeps the focuser on and the bulb assembly in place. Problem is I can't seem to get it out. Here's a shot of the stripped down flashlight head on.
The spring doesn't seem to have enough room to allow me to get it out. I'm sure there's a trick or tool they used to get it in there. Or the ring above it is LockTite'ed in there.
Thanks for any help!
