1911 Extractor removal tool
Best investment I've made in a while. This tool made removing the extractors off of my 1911s soooo much easier and with no marring of the slide. Highly recommend. Dawson has been great to work with.

This 1911 tool is worth every penny and completely eases the struggle of removing the extractor from the pistol. I agree with the fact that it should have a small hole for the firing pin so that you can use the tool to keep the extractor from rotating when putting everything back together (as mentioned in previous reviews).
The product worked great when I found a website that had a better photo than the one on the Dawson site, Your instructions were written by someone who knows how to use the product but cannot write good instructions, Write to assume the purchaser has no idea of how the extractor removal tool works.
The Dawson 1911 extractor removal tool made the removal of my stubborn 9 mm 1911 extractors easy. For those out there that appreciate simple and elegant design, this tool is for you.
Used this for the first time yesterday ... WOW does it make extractor removal easy. Well worth the price. So then I thought, will it help hold the extractor from rotating when installing the fire pin retaining plate?! NO because if won't let you push the firing pin down all the way. Now if this had a hole so the firing pin could go into it, this would make this tool doubly good!!
This tool works exactly as described. Every 1911 owner needs one of these. Excellent product.
Great tool that works and I will enjoy using. Extractor claw does seem to gouge the tool surface a bit as it's used. I will sand mine and use with lube. Would probably stand up a little better with a harder surface or finish.
This makes removal quick and painless.
Just wish I had ordered one sooner!
