4. Insert the recoil spring guide rod into the recoil spring housing from the rear

of the slide. See Figure 23.

5. Align the slide with the rails on the frame and gently push the slide onto the

frame as shown in Figure 24. Do not squeeze the grip safety while putting the

slide back onto the frame.

hole making sure it passes through the barrel link hole. (See Figure 25.)

Align the take down notch on the slide with the rectangular cutout of the

frame. Push the slide stop pin all the way in so that its rearward tab passes

through the take down notch and is locked into place. (See Figure 26.)
