The manual does not seem to help me very much.
Field stripping this pistol seems to be accomplished by these steps for me...
Field stripping this pistol seems to be accomplished by these steps for me...
- Lock back the slide
- Rotate dissasembly lever 90 degrees downward
- Release slide
- insert empty magazine
- Decock
- Remove magazine
- Slide falls off like butter on a hot knife
The manual says a few things that just arent making sense to me... The most puzzling thing is the frame tool.. number one.. I can't get the thing out! I turn it 1/4 turn clockwise.. it doesn't want to come out. I could get some pliars on it, but I am leery of marring my brand new weapon.. and using that tool to lower the sear deactivation lever is also a puzzle?! Is this step side stepped by inserting the mag, decocking, then releasing the mag? Is that a safe and recommended thing to do?
Sorry for the Newb question.. but I have scratched up, and harmed my guns by experimenting before.. I'd like not to make that mistake again...
Thanks for your help.
