push firing forward as far as it will go take hemostats and clip the on to the firing pin

put muzzle end of slide strait down this will relieve the safety pin
you may have to pull down on the hemostats at the same time wiggle and turn safety until comes out
release hemostats take firing pin out

there is a small spring with a plunger on top of the firing pin you may want to just clean it and put it back
pull firing pin spring off and replace
put back together in reverse order
