I would recommend you call Ruger - most firearms manufacturers are happy to supply you with a manual on their firearms. I've called both Sig & Glock for manuals and both supplied them at no cost - not even postage.

I know that I could call them but it will take a while for me to get it. Can someone please explain to me now so I can show him tomorrow when I go visit him.

ok, first off take out the mag and pull and lock the slide back. look down the mag well from the top (through the hole in the slide) you'll see a metal strap that needs to be pushed downward & forward in the top of the mag well (you can reach in through the slide to push this peice down) once you locate this part, unlock your slide and match up the small notch on the left side of the slide to the small notch on the left side of the frame (it will be a bit more than halfway back at this point) once you have the notches lined up and that metal strap pulled down, all you have to do (while continuing to keep those notches aligned) is pull out the slide release....and the slide will now go forward and disconnect from the frame
after that the spring and barrel come right out (much like a glock if you have one) if not, you'll easily see how the spring and barrel pop into and out of the slide. now just reverse the process to reassemble |

EagleArmsHBAR, did you get the thing apart?
There's some places you just shouldn't poke your fingers into, & the ejection port of an open slide sounds like an excellent one... But like silverstrand pat said, you have to fold the ejector forward, & down. Except for that little bit or Ruger weirdness, everything else is "normal" on them. |

If its like other Ruger autos, the slide stop DOES NOT come out all the way. It will go far enough to disassemble though.

I was at a guy's house recently that had a Ruger P-series handgun. He picked it up used, but had never cleaned it due to not knowing how to field strip it. I told him that it had been years since I owned one too, so it went back into the gunsafe dirty again. LOL

Another Ruger trick, it does come out. Never had a new one to know, figured it may have saved him from beating on it.
