Has any one else purchased one, experienced this and did the bushing loosen up after use? thanks,

YES, Have 2 Les Baer pistols and not only the dissemble needs a barrel bushing wrench to re-assemble the pistol you need a thin blade to depress the slide stop plunger while pushing the slide stop rearward up & in until the slide stop is fully home. The extreme close (very tight) tolerance is according to Les Baer required for accuracies to shoot 3 inch groups at 50 yards. The pistol has been field stripped numerous times for cleaning and it is as tight now as it was in Aug.2007. NOTE: I have never shot a 3 inch group at 50 yards. Les Baer claims some can shoot 2 & 1/2 inch OR BETTER groups ?
