34. If removal of the manual safety is necessary for repair, put the button in on-safe position, and insert a small tool with an L-shaped tip, such as the dental tool shown, to depress its plunger and spring. The safety button is then easily pushed out. Caution: Keep the plunger and spring under control.
Reasssembly Tips:
1. When re-installing the rear cross-pin sleeve, the trigger must be pulled slightly to clear.
2. Insert the front cross-pin sleeve in small increments, getting it through the carrier arm, the bolt latch, the hammer, and so on. Remember to install the hammer spring and plunger before putting in the bolt latch.
3. Remember that the bolt head must be compressed into the bolt body for reinsertion into the receiver. Be sure the lugs on the action slide bars mate properly with their recesses on the bolt.

| Data: | Beretta Model A303 |

The original Model A303 was introduced in 1983, and in 1989 a Sporting Clays version was offered, with a wide barrel rib and different stock dimensions. Also, in 1989, the A303 Upland Model was introduced. In 12-gauge only, it has a shorter barrel and an English-style buttstock. The earlier guns, the AL-2, AL-3, A301 and A302, are essentially the same, mechanically.
Disassembly:
1. Lock the action open, and set the safety in on-safe position. Unscrew and remove the forend cap.
2. Slide the forend off toward the front.
3. Remove the barrel toward the front.
4. Remove the gas piston.
5. The bushing inside the piston is retained by a ring-clip. This is not removed in normal takedown, only for repair.
6. Restrain the bolt, press the release button, and ease the bolt to forward position. Grip the cocking handle firmly, and remove it toward the right.
7. Move the action slide assembly foward, while pushing gently on the rear of the bolt, and remove the bolt and action slide.
8. Detach the bolt from the action slide.
9. Detach the slide plate and spring strut from the bolt.
10. Push out the cross pin, and detach the strut from the slide plate.
11. A roll cross pin retains the bolt handle retaining plunger and spring. If this assembly is removed, restrain the spring.
12. The firing pin and its return spring are retained by a vertical pin on the right side of the bolt at the rear. The pin must be drifted out upward. After removal of the firing pin, the locking block can be turned upward, and is taken out toward the left.
13. The extractor and its coil spring are retained by a vertical pin on the right side of the bolt at the front. The pin is drifted out upward. It is lightly staked at the top, and should be re-staked on reassembly.
14. Depress the carrier stop button toward the rear, allowing the carrier to drop lower.
15. With a non-marring tool, push out the trigger group retaining pin.
