Heres what I came up with when I googled "do sw 1911's come with a barrel bushing tool?'
No, the Smith & Wesson SW1911 does not typically come with a barrel bushing tool. While some 1911 models do include this tool for disassembly and reassembly, it is not a standard inclusion with the SW1911.
A simple google will answer a lot of questions.

Most 1911 type pistols do not require a bushing tool to disassemble.
I agree, 99.9% . . . All my 1911s except for one don't need the bushing tool. The Les Baer, though, is tight! The bushing won't come out without a tool. Not sure if that's a good thing or not. It's a bit of a pain, but it sure is accurate. TANSTAAFL!

Save your money. You don't need it.
I have bought four S&W 1911's everyone came with a bushing tool.

I have the tool SW included with their full sized 1911, but this one works better. The spring retainer remains trapped, and can't go flying off into spaces unknown. It doesn't help with reassembly, but that's easy enough with the butt of a magazine, while retaining control.
Well, firstly, My apologies for asking the question, Rather than point me to the ever unreliable google, that is rampant with MISINFORMATION, AI and just plain guesswork.... I'd rather ask a forum of knowledgeable people who are happy to share that knowledge.
If you're not interested in helping, just stay out of the thread, your reply is pretty much useless and all it shows is your ignorance.
Your google answer is incorrect by the way LOL.
Thanks for the replies guys, I've looked on You tube to find field strip videos and the ones i found used the tool but one also stressed that once the gun is fully broken in it's much easier to strip and reassemble.
If there's one in the box, Thanks @Revoman i'll use it until i no longer need to i guess.

The merchant video makes it look simple to use, if i can find one of these i'll grab one and try it, not sure what's different between "Govt." and "Officers" style 1911's but i'm guessing one side will work fine for me....
Thanks very much.
