## Questions & Answers

**Q: will this work with on a gsg 1911 22**
A: I don't know.  You may not need it as for most 1911 models your thumb should be sufficient to push down the recoil plug and spring and move the barrel bushing to the side and disassemble the weapon.  We got this wrench because the Springfield loaded 1911 uses a different take-down system with the recoil spring plug and initially it was a b***h to move the bushing to takedown the weapon for cleaning and lubrication.

**Q: Will this device work on a full length guide rod?**
A: Absolutely NOT!!! Waste on money if full length guide rod and or quality gun with tight tolerances.

**Q: Does this worl for a colt mark iv series 80 officer acp**
A: One side is for government and thee other is for officers. I have a Desert Eagle 1911 G. and it works excellent.

**Q: Will work on Les Baer 1911 long slide 10mm barrel bushings ?**
A: The tool is compatible with 1911 government and officer / commander profiles. Please consult your firearm manual or manufacturer to determine if it features standard or custom bushing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best bushing tool I've ever used - better than any of the flat wrenches
*by C***G on June 21, 2015*

Like every 1911 owner, I started with the "classic" style bushing remover - the type that sends it flying right right when you need it under control most. Not the best way to go for sure. Tried the wrenches with the small extension that tries to retain the plug and spring but the main problem is that you're always applying leverage from the side using the thin bushing face as a fulcrum - you need to turn, lever, and press down. Works OK but you still send plugs and springs flying. The Real Avid wrench is a whole new approach. I captures the bushing like a regular wrench stays under control the whole time. You're applying force right down the axis of the bore and recoil spring using the palm of your hand which means you're not levering your wrench. The result is easy and under control the whole time/ There is a detent to catch the plug and you'll both hear and feel the plug get captured. Don't go crazy and just let go of the tool but just smoothly and under control move it straight away from the end of the barrel until the spring tension is released. It's easy, repeatable, and especially controllable. There's a little bit of a catch to reinstall the plug and spring; you need to start off with the plug and spring outside of the detent used to capture the spring and plug when removing so you can turn the tool. It's easy because you are applying pressure straight down the bore with the palm of your hand. This is a good tool - if you're a 1911 person, you should use one of these tools. Get it right away and you'll probably never hit yourself in the face with the plug or send if sailing across the room. If you've already done that, get this tool and you might never do it again. It's lower cost and much better than any other alternative I've used.
