5. Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for the longevity and reliable operation of your SIG SAUER P320 X-CARRY Air Pistol. The realistic field stripping feature makes this process straightforward.

5.1 Field Stripping for Cleaning

1. Ensure the air pistol is unloaded and the magazine is removed.
2. Point the air pistol in a safe direction and pull the trigger to ensure it is decocked.
3. Rotate the takedown lever (located on the left side of the frame, above the trigger) downwards.
4. While holding the takedown lever down, pull the slide assembly forward off the frame.
5. Carefully remove the recoil spring and guide rod from the slide.
6. Remove the barrel from the slide.

5.2 Cleaning and Lubrication

• Clean the barrel using a cleaning rod and appropriate cleaning patches.
• Wipe down all metal components with a clean cloth.
• Apply a small amount of silicone-based airgun lubricant to moving parts, such as the slide rails and trigger mechanism. Avoid petroleum-based lubricants, as they can damage seals.

5.3 Reassembly

1. Insert the barrel back into the slide.
2. Place the recoil spring and guide rod back into the slide assembly.
3. Align the slide assembly with the frame rails and push it rearward until it seats properly.
4. Rotate the takedown lever back to its original horizontal position.
5. Function test the air pistol by cycling the slide and checking the safety.

6. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your SIG SAUER P320 X-CARRY Air Pistol.

6.1 Slide Stuck in Half-Cocked Position / Failure to Go Into Battery

Some users have reported the slide getting stuck in a partially engaged position, preventing the air pistol from firing or fully cycling. This can often be resolved by resetting the internal hammer mechanism.

1. Ensure the air pistol is unloaded and the magazine is removed.
2. Field strip the air pistol as described in Section 5.1.
3. With the slide removed, locate the hammer mechanism within the frame.
4. Using a non-marring tool (e.g., a plastic or wooden rod, or an Allen key if carefully used), gently push the hammer back until it clicks and stays in the fully decocked position. Avoid excessive force.
5. Reassemble the air pistol according to Section 5.3.
6. Function test the air pistol to ensure the slide cycles freely and the trigger operates correctly.

If the issue persists after following these steps, contact customer support.
