Various features of the Pistol Pal makes opening the takedown latch a snap, serve as a punch to drive out tight stubborn bolt stops and also has a self-contained tool for removing that pesky extractor! It even serves as a magazine loading assistant on MKIII™ magazines.
Sized to fit your shooting box, or in your pocket. This excellent tool was designed and is manufactured by a professional gunsmith on modern CNC machine tools. The body/punch is CNC machined from rugged, non-marring Delrin which is already used for many firearm applications today. The latch pull loop is heavy duty, braided stainless steel wire. Both the loop and tempered steel extractor tool are affixed to an Aluminum cap that screws into the top of the tool.
The "Pistol Pal" extractor tool also works great for the new Ruger® MKIV™ and MKIV™ 22/45™ pistols, to remove the extractor for changing to an aftermarket extractor and for cleaning.

Great addition to the range bag...sure comes in handy opening the spring latch...also helps a great deal removing the main spring assembly. just a tap or two with a plastic hammer and the pin pops right out.

Gunsmither Pistol Pal
Ordered this to help with the disassembly of my Ruger pistols and it works as advertised. Works better that the piece of nylon string I was using to pull open the takedown latch. I needed to pull the extractor on one of the pistols and it worked great. Well worth the money and I pick up another for my range bag.

Most people who buy a Ruger MKIII will praise the performance of the pistol and complain bitterly about the difficultly in take down and cleaning. I tend to take pride in learning how to master the process and become proficient at it. Having said that, the Tandemkross "Gunsmither Pistol Pal" is a perfect tool for making the take down process so much easier. The round indentation at the tip makes it easy to drive out the bolt stop. The wire loop is perfect for opening the "finger nail breaking" takedown latch. All in all, this tool is perfect for making a difficult process bearable and will make the gun owner proud that he/she can accomplish a process that so many others complain about.

Whatever did we do before this tool?
Every range bag and cleaning kit needs this tool, period! A great deal of thought went into this item. Will save alot of scratches on the main spring release and bolt stop. Used to use a wooded dowel on the bolt stop but had to replace about once a year due to wear and tear. Ruger should provide one of these with every pistol. Could not be happier.

Gunsmither MKIII and 22/45 Pistol Pal
This really makes taking down the MKIII easy. No damage to the bluing and the pin punch is great to have. Even using the cable to load magazines is an innovation. Highly recommended.
