UNLOADING

chamber to make sure that the pistol is clear and unloaded. If the chamber is empty,
press the slide stop down while squeezing the trigger, allowing the slide to go forward. If
there is a shell or unfired cartridge in the chamber, manually remove it before pressing
the stop down. Your gun is now unloaded.

A. BARREL AND SLIDE ASSEMBLY
1. Press the magazine release and withdraw the magazine. Pull the slide
backward and check the chamber to ensure that pistol is unloaded and
safe.

barrel bushing, recoil spring, recoil spring guide and recoil spring plug
will come out with it.
