Do you need to remove a barrel jacket bushing on a Remington Model 81? Here is a quick and cheap way to make your own removal tool.

Grab an old 3/4″ shallow socket.

Anneal the socket so its soft enough to cut. ( Make sure you let it cool slowly!)

Place the socket into your mills vise.

Remove material so you are left with 2 pieces on opposite sides. I made mine .080 high by .080 wide and it worked great.

Your tool should line up with the notch cuts in the bushing.

Now just find a ratchet and begin unscrewing to start your disassembly.
