Browning buckmark-help

The sight base screws must come out first - very small allen wrench - really easy to strip. After that, it is obvious what to do. A not-nice design.
 
I recently disassembled/reassembled one with my friend for full cleaning/lubing. I think those pistols are secretly made by IKEA, and people assembling them got damn small fingers :D

Was a fun experience! :D
 
Getting the recoil spring out is the hardest part, easy to do with a small screwdriver. If you do like it says in the manual and you have a tight fitting spring assembly, you'll bend the spring guide(I did at least).

On the bright side though, you shouldn't have to disassemble it often since the action is so easy to access. I just scrub the breech face with a toothbrush and oil all the mating surfaces on the top and bottom of the slide and it's good to go. The soot doesn't really have anywhere else to stick with this design.
