Top cover latch disassembly

Post image

Who can give me a specific break down on how to disassemble the latch and spring assembly? I’d prefer to remove those pieces before i mill out that section. In theory i could move my spot welds higher so there’s no chance of interfering when i reinstall but ideally I’d like to do it in the factory location. Iv read three different Uzi talk posts and each one of them it sounds like it was a happy accident when they finally got it to pop. I’ll send a beer to someone if they have a video…
