Help with an Erma .22 pistol

We purchased an Erma .22 pistol today. It is a .22 caliber copy of a German Lugar. There was no manual. Does anyone know how to disassemble this pistol?
Thanks

does it have a model number? I have been able to find a lot of manuals online or places with a manual simply by using Google.......

I also know that some Erma .22 pistols were made by Erma for American Arms....

I have an Erma .22 pistol that looks like a minature 45....wasnt listed under Erma but under American Arms which was stamped on the slide.

either one of these?

"Notes: The EP-22, also known as the LA-22, is modeled on the P-08 Luger, but chambered for .22 Long Rifle ammunition. It was produced from 1964-1971, and is basically of a similar size and of comparable weight to the Luger. Some rare variants of the EP-22 include the Navy model, with a 5.9-inch barrel (as opposed to the 4.5-inch barrel of the standard EP-22), and a Carbine model with an 11.8-inch barrel, wooden fore-end, tangent-leaf rear sight, and a detachable stock.

The KGP-69 succeeded the EP-22 in production, and was manufactured until 1997. It adds a magazine safety and replaces the wooden grip plates with a molded plastic grip. However, the barrel is shorter at 3.9 inches."

This one is actually an Erma, made in Germany. It's not the LA22, it's the other model. I don't have it in front of me, my girlfriend bought it yesterday.
I have not been able to find any info on it on Google so far.
Thanks!
