Description
This tool inserts into the magazine well of a Sig P226, P228 or P229 pistol to ease in the removal of the 1-piece (E2) grips.
Just insert until the tip of the tool touches the bottom of the slide and twist to pop the grips out enough to slide them off the pistol. You may have to play around a bit to find the sweat-spot where both sides pop out equally, but once you find it, they slide right off the back of the pistol.
I printed it in basic PLA on an X1C. The test models were printed with only 15% infill and seemed to work just fine, but to give it a little more heft and feel a bit more substantial, I printed the final tool at 75% Gyroid, and it feel plenty strong.
