1. Make sure the gun is UNLOADED and there is NO ammo in the same room you are field striping the gun in. I cant stress enough you must check, double check, and check again that the gun is unloaded.

2. Make sure the decocking lever is off so the hammer will stay back. Look at the slide and locate the notch were the slide stop catches, further down the barrel there is another notch, line that one up with the slide stop pin and push out the pin.

3. After removing the pin slowly allow the slide to move forward and while holding the hammer pull the slide off the gun the hammer will release and the slide will come off. Make sure you hold the hammer so it doesn't fall into the frame.

4. Once the slide is off place it face down on the sights with the barrel pointed toward you. carefully pull the slid spring and guide pin toward you and remove it from the slide.

5. at the front of the barrel there is a barrel holder which rotates similar to a 1911. Rotate approximately 90 degrees and pull the holder forward. then remove the barrel.

Reassembly is the same with one exception, when you are putting the slide back on there are two (2) metal pins which obtrude from the frame push them down.

I hope this is helpful have fun with your great gun.
