I need some help, I'm generally really good about breaking down weapons and putting them back together but I've hit a snag.

I was tearing down my springer and I got the mainspring housing outand the sear came out, how do I get the ambi safety off so I get this sucker back together? grips are off, slide as well.

If you have a Swenson-style ambi safety as on most SAs, you'll need to remove the right grip panel, then pull outward on the right half of the safety. There's sometimes a bit of difficulty about this, but if you do a search on "ambidextrous safety removal" here, you'll find some tips and tricks, or just repost to this thread.
As you likely know, the left side safety lever has a sweet spot just between the "safe" and "fire" positions where it will pull out easily with a little pressure.
