Mario, I will try this method out--right after I master the art of tearing a phone book in half! The Erma toggle pistols work sort of opposite to this, the upper is pushed forward to allow the locking bolt's removal. It's easy enough to grip the barrel and push against the frame with the thumb. The situation that sometimes gives me a blood blister is clearing a jam (in a .22 cal. KGP 69) in which the nose of the round has dug into the top edge of the chamber mouth, is over-ridden by the breech block, and wedged in the lips of the mag, all at once. Taking the pressure off the arrangement by holding the toggles back is necessary when dropping the mag, which is a three-hander of a move. Note: Remove skin from immediate area before releasing toggle knobs!
