## Discrepancy

WHEN ACFT BLOCKED IN RAMP, OPENED L1 DOOR BEFORE IT WAS DE-ARMED AND BLEW BOTTLE.  SLIDE LANDED ON STAIRS BUT DID NOT DEPLOY.  RELEASED FOR SERVICE IAW MEL: 52-11-01-A.  L1 DOOR SLIDE - MISSING, SLIDE DID NOT DEPLOY, FOUND BOTH MAGNETS (TARGETS) AND SLID THEM ON GIRT BAR.  REINSTALLED GIRT BAR AND PROXIMITY SWITCH MAGNETS IN REF TO AMM 25-66-10-2.  OPS CHECK OK AT THIS TIME. ACFT OK FOR SERVICE.
