Owner’s Manual 2016

This level of disassembly is sufficient to perform thorough
cleaning : further disassembly should only be carried out
by a FN Recommended Service Center / your
departmental armorer.
At the rear, slide the butt plate up and off the frame.
While raising the hammer group release lever, pull the
hammer group slightly rearward in order to release it.
After that, slide the hammer group completely out of the
frame.
Note that the hammer group cannot be removed if the hammer is at
the (raised) decocked position. If the trigger has been pulled after the
removal of the moving parts, reassemble the carbine, cock the
hammer by pulling the cocking handle completely rearward and then
start disassembling again.
