B. Cartridge overall length too short or too long.
C. Bullet nose too blunt.
D. Slide is short stroking. Ammo charge is not to
SAAMI specs for 45 ACP.
UNLOADING
1.
To unload, first remove magazine as in step 1
of previous section.
2.
If all of the rounds from the magazine have
been fired, slide will automatically lock in the
open position. If not, repeat step 4.
If magazine is not removed prior to this
procedure, any rounds left in it will be
chambered,
which could lead to an
unintentional discharge. The pistol will fire with
a round chambered and the magazine
removed.
3.
If slide has not automatically locked in the
rearward position as a result of firing the last
round from the magazine, do it manually and
