Question Disassembling 915

I need help disassembling a 915. I can't seem to push the slide stop lever out. Am I missing something? I've taking apart my Glocks, SIGs, Berettas and 1911s but never played with to many S&W autos. Any help before I go to the big hammer would be great.
Thanks

Got it. Needed to pry rather than push.
Thanks

Shouldn't need to pry, usually press the stop pin with something like a small plastic screwdriver handle and it pops out. Slide stop notch lines up with the crosspin and not the lock end like on a 1911.
