Springfield Firecat Disassembly

Hi

I am looking for any help on how to fully disassemble a Springfield Firecat Pistol. (aka Astra A70).

I am able to field strip the pistol without any problems but can't figure out how to unload the mainspring so that I can remove the hammer and sear.

On the Astra A75 there is a hole under the safety to put a cross pin through to retain the mainspring but on the Firecat and A70 there is no such hole.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ciao
