The price seems high for what you get, but it is a properly machined tool. You'll be way ahead in money, time and aggravation if you use this. Not to mention it removes the possibility of marring your frame with a slipped screw driver or easy-out. Pro tip: Don't force it! If the bushing(s) don't loosen fairly easily then a thread locker was probably used. Heat it with a soldering iron or even a Bic lighter to break the bond (of the thread locker), then loosen. Review: Perfect tool for the job! - This is exactly the tool I needed to remove a stubborn grip bushing from one of my 1911s. I wasn't able to budge the bushing with just a screw driver, so I stopped and ordered the Challis 1911 Bushing Extractor before I tore it up completely. Worked like a charm on the first attempt. I can see where this would also be great for doing bushing installs without messing the slot up. I'm going to order the one for slim bushings so I can be prepared ahead of time, since the ones I put in went in pretty tight. I'll be using a Challis tool any time I do an install or removal from now on. ## Features - Easily and quickly removes 1911 slotted bushings - Available in Full-Size and Slim-Size - Will not damage bushing or frame - Patented design is best in the industry ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Item Package Dimensions L x W x H | 5.98 x 2.99 x 0.51 inches | | Package Weight | 0.02 Kilograms | | Brand Name | Challis Grips | | Manufacturer | Challis Grips | | Part Number | T-FBE | | Size | Full-Size Bushings | ## Images ![Challis 1911 Bushing Extractor | for Easily Removing Grip bushings from 1911 Frames - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61TzWGyJuuL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the proper tool for the job. *by B***S on September 6, 2025* If you do any work on 1911s, you need this.

The only way to go. *by R***D on April 14, 2021* Such a simple and perfect tool for the job. I had replaced my grips and added a magwell to my Kimber 1911. First time in I noticed the screws on the drivers side were not perfect. Tried to remove them without the tool and NO WAY does that work. This tool makes it simple. Remove screws and grips. Place socket over bushing, add supplied screw as you line up the grooves in the socket with the bushing. Tighten. DONT over tighten, but tighten. Put rod through socket, with even pressure turn counter clockwise. REMEMBER to make certain that the socket is in the grooves completely and screw is tight. My bushings were damaged so this took a little manipulation on 2 of the bushings, but with slow steady even pressure, it worked. Replaced with Dan Wesson bushings, which worked. Last note to users, be certain to try you magazines BEFORE reassembly so that if you need to back off of the bushings a rotation or two, you can do it easily. Mine are still snug and not moving with the loktite that was already in the old holes, so dont panic if you are not all the way tight on each bushing. Great Tool. Saved me lots of time and gunsmith money. Miracle tool. ## Frequently Bought Together - Challis 1911 Bushing Extractor | for Easily Removing Grip bushings from 1911 Frames - Challis Grips 4 ea Black 1911 Full Size Grip BUSHINGS / 4 ea O Rings | US Made for Colt and Clones | Patented Design Prevents Loose Grip Screws | Hex Drive Makes These Very Easy to Install and Remove - Guuun 1911 Grip Screws Bushings, T10 Torx Key, 4 O Rings, Stainless Steel Silver --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/45764971-challis-1911-bushing-extractor-for-easily-removing-grip-bushings-from](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/45764971-challis-1911-bushing-extractor-for-easily-removing-grip-bushings-from) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-05-28*
