I have a 1943 Colt Commander aka Official Police .38. I need help removing the crane bushing in so I can disassemble for rebluing.
I know there is a tool for this, but I tried with a 1/16” punch to turn it with no luck after soaking in Penetrating oil for a while. I don’t want to damage the two tabs so I wasn’t overly aggressive. There is no rust, it just has never been removed.
Does anyone have suggestions or better yet the tool to just help me turn it out. I’m sure I can tap it back in place later.
I can come about anywhere for some quick assistance and pay a fee if needed.
Thanks.
