1911 Bushing Wrench

[GB0]

Just received a Cylinder & Slide, 1911 bushing wrench. I don't know why I waited so long to order one of these, but this particular wrench has a precision fit to the bushing. The design also helps hold the spring cap in place while tightening. There is no budge or flex in this wrench at all, it is very solid and as a result you can depress the spring cap and twist the bushing, with what seems like no effort at all.

EDIT: Using this with an FLGR and an extremely tight Dan Wesson PM7 bushing.

I like the looks of the tab design, not having to worry about flying cap would be nice. Also should help in getting extra leverage working with a higher tension springs. Nice.

I lost a cap at an indoor range once. Had a case rupture, and wanted to make sure the projectile actually left the barrel, and when I took it apart :::ZING!::: sucker flew out into a million pieces of brass never to be seen again
