Option 1 for Field Stripping a Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0

1. Make sure the firearm is unloaded

You will do this by pushing the magazine release and removing the magazine. After that, you will lock the slide back by pulling the slide to the rear of the gun and pushing up on the slide stop. You will want to look inside the gun to make sure there is not a round in the chamber.

2. Push the takedown lever down

This lever is located on the left side of the firearm. It will move downward in a clockwise direction.

3. Release the slide slowly

You will do this by pulling slightly back on the slide and letting the slide release slowly forward

4. Pull the trigger

This method requires you to pull the trigger to release the slide. Once you do that, the slide will slide forward off the frame of the firearm. Many people do not like having to pull the trigger to release the slide so there is another way to take this firearm apart which we will discuss now.
