Light pressure from other side with a pen or Q-tip.
Congrats on the new toy, welcome to the disease. You can't have just one.  BTW, you DID release the spring tension first, right?  |

What notch are you linging up?
sometimes they need a little help when new. I use a brass drift from the opposite side or a screwdriver from slide stop side. Remove the recoil spring first, them make sure your lined up with the notch smaller more rear (closer to hammer) notch. |

shoot it first then try it.
Did you read the manual? A few people have tried to field strip it like a conventional semi auto pistol and it dosen't work that way. |

You do not have to remove the recoil spring for removal of the slide stop. It just makes it easier if you do.

I did remove the recoil spring, I found some instructions online and I could get the slide stop to move just not come out.. I think I might try tapping it out with something.

I know Springfieds had a put a dimple on my slide stop to help keep the gun from going into slide premature. I ground that dimple out as I modfy all my base pads to remove the pad for slidelock.
That dimple made it a pain to remove the slidestop. I always needed a tool even after 5k thru the gun. |
