About 2 months ago I changed the grips on my Springfield 1911 Emissary. It came with slim grips and I wanted to change to the larger standard grips, this required changing the grip bushings also. To make a long story short replacing the standard bushings became a nightmare. Your excellent bushing removal tool got the old bushings out and your hex head bushings are far superior to the standard style bushings. So when I wanted new grips for my SA EMP4, I started out by ordering your your parts before i took anything apart. New grip installation went very smooth because I had everything that I needed before starting.

Why did it take me so long to pick these up? The concept is so perfect. When you need or want to swap out bushings these should be your go to option. With the bushings, o rings and the torque limiting wrench you can ensure your grips will be properly installed and stay put. Awesome company with awesome support and customer service.

I now have these bushings on a few of my 1911s. IMO, every 1911 should come from factory with the Challis bushings installed. Yes, these bushings are that good.

Excellent design, no competition out there. I ordered the slim bushings but they were not slim enough for my VZ thin grips. I had to order the extra slim instead.

I ordered the extra slim and the slim bushings and both worked perfectly and solved my issues with thin grips fitting properly. The 7/32 drive is an amazing idea and the fit tight and lined up great. I also picked up some SOS screws in black and stainless and then just set the grips off. I think I will continue to order bushings and screws for all my guns.
