I don't have the book in front of ,me and I may have some of the names wrong but it wont change the way it comes apart. I can do mine with my eyes closed .lol. Many cleaning times.
One thing I would like to mention here that seems to be a problem for some is the removel and replacing of the cylinder. Place the gun on half cock and make sure the cylinder pin and the rammer are out of the way.As you hold the gun so that the barrel is pointing to your left and reach under the frame with your left hand and grab the cylinder with your fingers on the opposit side and your thumb on your side of the cylinder . Rotate the cylinder as you remove it "Clockwise" (Rotate it towards you) and it will come right out. Counter clockwise (Rotate away from you) as you replace it. Hope I got that right
The barrel smoothing your asking about should only be done if the barrel is really rough or has burs. Just load as you normally would with a light load. Instead of grease over the ball place a small amount of valve lapping compound you can get at the local auto parts store . I would not do more that two chambers this way. If you still have burs then I would take it to your local gun smith.
As for the nipple you don't have to remove them to clean all the time. I remove mine two or three times a year and I shoot all the time. Just buy some licquid lock ease or licquid grafite is my favorite. Place a dap on the threads before you install the nipple and they will remove very easy every time. Mike
