A Fine Bushing(16.09.2017)
No issues with the bushing or bushing tool - both worked well. As Paul Harvey knew all too well, sometimes it's "the rest of the story". A grip screw broke off in my 92F and I accidentally damaged the bushing threads drilling out the screw. Lesson 1: don't use cheap grip screws (especially not the ones with pre-applied thread locker) Lesson 2: that screw hole is smaller than you think. The 92F has deeply staked bushings that are stubborn to remove, and if those frame threads get damaged, matters go from bad to worse. The bushing would not budge, and the bushing tool started deforming the bushing under increasing pressure. What to do? I filed the top of the bushing smooth (so the screw hole was clean and flush), then drilled the bushing with a 1/8" bit. A #2 screw extractor achieved adequate grip and torque to unscrew the bushing with no damage to the frame threads. The frame and new bushing were cleaned (de-greased) and installed using thread locking compound. Brownell's offers the staking head, but 3 of the 4 92F grip holes are indirect access, so the staking operation may require special equipment. Being able to add a little heat to loosen the thread locker for a "next time", seems the better option for an average Joe handyman.
