1911 plunger spring tool
Greetings all. Can someone recommend a tool or method to depress the 1911 plunger spring? I use a screw driver and it keeps sliding off of the spring when I attempt remove or insert the safety. When the screw driver slides off the spring, it scratches the finish-not a good thing!
The gun I have is an Springfield Armory G.I. m1911. And that beautifully parkerized finish is getting scratched up!
Thanks for your help.
