Never mind, got it. I just had to fiddle with the alignment on the take down notch and it pushed right in.

Alchemy Custom Weaponry 1911 Disassembly Tool
 

Glad it worked out. With increased age has come some arthritis and neuropathy in my hands. I have found Alchemy's 1911 Disassembly tool to be a great help in taking down my 1911's. They have different sizes for different calibers and different thickness bushings, upon request.

I have NO fiduciary interest in the company.


Best wishes.

I like that tool, it certainly is more robust than those little plastic wrenches.
