I can not get the slide all the way back onto the frame. WTF ! I need soe help. The safety thingy on the frame I push down but it seems to be hanging up somewhere. I have not even shot this and I am pissed off already.
 
You got me, i only had experiance with the .22 version which are actually made by gsg sometimes they were finicky to get back together. Youtube often has answers to these things as well.
 
My last one was a real ##### at first to get the Series 80 safety dealy at the right rear of the frame all the way down; I really had to make sure it was down all the way. subsequent reassemblies went a little easier. The first time I reassembled the pistol I pushed on the slide and it came back, split my index finger nail and bled like a sonuva#####. Hope you have better luck!
 
Mine was tight at first--but I just made sure I pressed the lever down with my thumbnail and eased the slide over it and it fit back together. The first reassembly was the hardest.
 
Did you dry fire the frame without the slide on? If yes, you might have created a burr where the hammer hits the frame. That would stop the slide from going fully backwards.

Other wise watch a few you tube videos and reassembly.
