I used to have one of those pistols. If I remember correctly, you need to align the notch on the left side of the slide with the safety lever. You can then remove the safety and then the slide.

Okay, do you have to rotate the little button/lever thing on the right down first? And then take the safety all the way out? And magazine in or out? Thank you for the help it is greatly appreciated!

Good deal. Glad you got it. Nothing really to watch out for. These are tough little guns.
