    The Challis Bushing Extractor is placed over the bushing and rotated until it engages the slot. It is then firmly secured to the bushing using a standard grip screw. This keeps the tool in constant axial contact and alignment with the bushing, something that is very difficult to achieve when using a screwdriver, even one made for the purpose.

    When the force required to turn the bushing with a screwdriver exceeds the strength of the bushing's narrow rim, the rim will begin to shear off. If there is not something to prevent this, the rim will easily peel away because the driving forces are progressively acting on a smaller cross-sectional area. The Challis Bushing Extractor supports the very top of the bushing by clamping it tightly against the tool. It also closely fits the shape of the bushing at the rim's circumference, and the grip screw prevents material from peeling inward. Because of this, the rim has nowhere to go and the driving forces act on the entire cross-section of the rim. Simply put, the Challis Bushing Extractors will easily remove bushings that can't be removed with a screwdriver.

    By design the 1911 bushing is a softer metal than the frame as it is supposed to be sacrificial. They break easily. Compounding this issue is that many manufacturers use an adhesive (lock-tite-like) and even if you do use the proper squared blade... they break. Then you are well and truly screwed. That is... until Challis invented these magical little tools. Thanks you for this. The price is right (keeps you out of the gunsmith's) and these guys shipped it out on a SATURDAY. Thanks again.

    I didn't discover Colt staked their bushings until I completely demolished one on a new acquisition. Not only did the Challis Bushing Extractor remove the non-destroyed staked bushings, it made quick work of the one that barely resembled a bushing. Just a bit of dressing the edges to allow the die to seat and off it came. My only regret is not having this in my toolbox sooner.
