Midway has an exploded view so that you can easily identify any part, then a link to your choices.

how do you like your SAM??? hows the accuracy???

thats why I disassemble them the "unauthorized" way by pulling the slide stop pin first. wrap you palm around the underside, to hold spring and guide, pull the slide stop pin at the half open position to clear the takedown notch, and slide the upper off. reassembly is still done in the conventional manner. unless your thumb slips off the spring plug when reloading it under the bushing, you wont launch it.

for some reason, instructors did not want them taken apart this way. If you run a FLGR, you have to do it as stated above.
