Reassembly Tips:

Note that one end of the recoil spring is larger in diameter, the large end goes toward the front of the slide.

When replacing the hammer strut and spring, the strut is accessible through an opening in the backstrap of the grip frame, and can be gripped with pliers and pushed down for insertion of a keeper pin while the hammer is installed.

When the slide is run forward during reassembly, it will automatically push the takedown-latch back into locked position.

The safety-lever shaft has a bevel to aid reassembly, but the plunger must be partially depressed before it can meet the bevel. This can be done by inserting a small screwdriver through the shaft hole on the right side of the frame. Wear eye protection, and be careful the screwdriver doesn’t slip, or you may spend a long time looking for that tiny plunger.
