5. (A & B) Rest pistol on table or bench with muzzle pointing upward.
6. (A only) Push slide back about % inch, press down on recoil spring plug,
compressing the recoil spring into the slide until the plug is fully home, then
rotate the barrel bushing. Align the arched part of the bushing so that it
straddles the recoil spring plug and locks it in place.
6. (B only) Place recoil spring plug over end of recoil springs. Align lug on recoil
spring plug with access slot in slide and push the plug into the slide using a
screwdriver. Now turn the plug % turn until the lug on the plug locks into the
locking slot on the bottom of the slide.
Install the barrel bushing over the recoil spring plug and into the slide. Press
down on the recoil spring plug and at the same time rotate the barrel bushing
clockwise about a % turn to lock it over the plug, (See Figure 7, page 34).
Finally, while the pistol is still empty (unloaded), check that the recoil spring plug
is correctly seated and locked. To do so, (See Figure 8, page 36) note that the
recoil spring plug must be flush with, or protruding only slightly beyond, the face
of the barrel bushing when the screwdriver slot is vertical.
Double check by looking at the bottom of the slide, just in front of the receiver,
to ensure the lug on the recoil spring plug is fully seated in its slot on the slide.
