.Pull the slide back & lock it in this posision with the slide stop on the left side of the gun.REMOVE THE BARREL Under the barrel & on the front of the trigger guard is a button, This button has to be pushed in all the way to release the barrel.

Place the button against the edge of the bench ( use a shop rag to protect the finish on the gun)& while securely holding the gun, push the button against the bench to get the buttom move, & little WD-40 or gun oil on the button won't hurt.
