STI STACCATO XC

[JAMROCK]

I own several STI hand guns, each with their own disassembly process...paperclip or with the new Staccato c2 a 1/2 plastic sleeve. Does anyone know how to disassemble the new Staccato xc with  integrated compensated barrel?

I would imagine that it has a Dawson toolless guide rod.  Lock the slide back, pull if back a tad farther to the read, push the lever in the end of the  guiderod with a punch, let the slide forward slowly and it should be captured.  Take the slide stop out, remove the guide rod assembly and the barrel/comp will slide right out of the front of the slide.

Take the top end off first and push the guide rod forward with your thumb if its hard to reach while on the frame.

I have often used a number of wet lube brands on my hand guns, but a range manager  is recommending Otis "Dry Lube." Is dry better than wet, or will Dry Lube cause a problem for my hand guns over time?

Always searching for a better way.
