How the fuck do I push in the spring to take of the button I have a new 1911 and I cannot fucking move it. I put some oil and it's a little better but I'm having trouble moving the bushing still..
Man the fuck up bitch nigger

You need a bushing wrench you nigger, rotate the bushing and remove it.

This
Push in button. Rotate bushing one way to remove spring, the other way to remove the bushing.
Push slide back to removal position, push retention out. This is the biggest pain for me, mine always gets stuck.
More like how do you put the middle pin back in after cleaning it with that fucking little bb sized springy blocker thing?!
Does anyone else know what I am talking about? I feel like I am doing gun origami or something and have to use some kind of tool to depress that little round bump that blocks the middle pin from securing in
Man up

if you're having problems doing that, I suggest looking up how not to put an idiot scratch on your gun when you reassemble it.
>>30741776
Use a tool, like a wooden dowel or the end of the screwdriver. Hell, you could use the edge of a table, you nigger.

It should have come with a barrel bushing. If not, you just have weak hands.

I can't tell what you're talking about. How about you circle the part on the diagram?

I think he is talking about putting in the slide stop and how some times on shittier 1911's the barrel lug will get in the way. You then have to use gravity to line it back up and pop it in perfectly.
My Colt does not have this issue, My RIA does.
I think he's talking about the Barrel link and slide stop
