3. Cock the hammer. Pull the slide back until the rear edge of the smaller recess in the
lower edge of the slide is even with the rear end of the slide stop. Press the index
finger of the right hand against the end of the slide stop which protudes from the
opposite side of the frame obove the trigger guard and pull out the slide stop
(See fig. 5).
4. As this slide stop is the medium by which the barrel link and slide are locked to the
frame, withdrawing it releases the barrel and slide assembly, which may then together
be drawn from the frame, carrying also the recoil spring, recoil spring guide and
barrel bushing. (See fig. 6).
5. The barrel bushing, recoil spring and its guide may now be pulled out of the slide.
(See fig. 7).
6. The barrel may then be drawn out if the link is tilted forward (See fig. 8).
This is all the disassembling necessary to properly clean the pistol.
TO REASSEMBLE THE PISTOL AFTER CLEANING
Reverse this procedure. When replacing slide on frame, pull slide back so that the
6
barrel link lines up with the hole from which the slide stop was removed.
