I picked up a very sweet r109 and I'm in the process of tear-down. It has not been converted to BA yet. It looks like there is a duro poppet in there but I am not sure how to get it to drop out of the barrel without removing the lever. Any help would be appreciated.
 
Just spread the lever feet slightly away from the air barrel and the poppet should drop out.
 
Right on, worked great! Is the orifice oring a 902 then?
 
Alternatively, lift the lever as far forward and it will go and use a chopstick (something that will not damage the orifice or seat) to push it out. It will take just a slight pressure. The lever lift and a light push also works for installation.
