Any suggestions about removing the barrel bushing. I sprayed it with oil and tried lubing the part I could get at and moving it with the wrench. It really, really is difficult to move. I almost didn't get the gun back together and never did remove the bushing.

This was the same experience I have had with my new VBob over the last few days. Getting the gun apart was a treat. I did the Frog Lube treatment and the Frog Lube was too thick and prevented reassembly. I cleaned that off and applied Militec 1, as directed (
) and everything went together much easier. I still like Frog Lube for the looser pistols, but Militec 1 will be used for the VBob. Good luck.
