Default M&P 40FS firing pin removal

I want to remove the firing pin from the slide to clean and lubricate it. Don't want to disassemble it incorrectly or damage the gun, and cant quite figure out how to get it apart.

It's a very simple procedure and is the same on all calibers, including the Shield.

Don't lubricate it. If your going to take it apart, clean out and ensure the channel is dry and just use a little bit of alcohol on the FP to clean it off.
