CLEANING THE MAGAZINE

It is advisable to clean the magazine whenever the pistol

is cleaned. To do so, remove the magazine follower and

spring and clean all components, taking care to remove

carbon deposits from the lips of the magazine and the

magazine follower. Wipe components with lightly oiled

cloth and reassemble.

The magazines are disassembled from the top.

To remove the magazine follower and spring, depress

them with a piece of wood (pen or pencil) about two

inches into the magazine and insert a thin rod (small

screwdriver) through the lower of the front two holes in

the magazine body. This will hold spring under tension.

Turn the magazine upside down and lightly tap it so that

the follower falls away from the spring; lift out the

follower from the magazine body. Push down on the

spring to take up the spring tension, remove the thin rod

and allow the spring to extend, then remove it

completely.

To assemble magazine, place the spring correctly

oriented, i.e. with loop uppermost pointing forward into

the magazine body, compress the spring and insert a thin

rod as for dismantling. Place the follower into the

magazine on top of the compressed spring, remove the

thin rod and allow the spring to reassert its influence on

the follower.
