There were 2 rifles that were marked 31A. Both were bolt action 22s made by Mossberg- the model 40 and model 44. For both: Open the bolt, insure rifle is empty. With the safety OFF, bolt open, press trigger to the rear and hold it. The bolt will slide out of the back of the action. Turn rifle over, and unscrew the single large screw at the underside of the stock. This will release the barrel and action from the stock. The 40 uses a tube magazine- turn the end, slide the inner magazine tube out of the outer magazine tube. The 44 uses a box magazine- press and hold the magazine catch, and withdraw the magazine. At this point, you should STOP taking things apart. This is enough to clean and lubricate the rifle.
