This tool really works!  In my opinion, it is worthy of being included as an accessory with each Rohrbaugh pistol shipped.

I really don't expect the Rohrbaugh Bros to be interested in the "TOOL".  They don't have a problem installing the Spring assembly.   ;)      

And even if the Pliers they use were to slip and parts go flying, ....they have bins full of parts and pieces.

The "TOOL" is for those that have trouble with the re-assembly,  like me.   :D

My biggest problem is getting the pin back in the hole and putting the pup back together again.  Take down, cleaning & reassembling parts are all OK but putting the top to the bottom  & getting the pin in can be an hour long job.

cordy.  You may have seen this video.  This may or may not help as a good deal of hand strength is involved with no tools.  The video does show how to grasp the slide and hold it back, and it is all in the grasp.  

Works for me, hope it does for you.    :)

Practice makes perfect.  In time you will be able to put the pup back together in the dark.  I just finished taking 3 pups down all the way and cleaned them then put all back together in less than 5 min.

The best solution to cordy's issue is the pvc pipe tool that locks in the pin hole for takedown and reassembly but I can't find the link to it. Maybe someone can help with this one but he isn't looking for a manual resolution.

I agree with the practice part.  Really, when you follow the video or the manual and do it several times, it becomes easy.  Some may disagree, but I find it to be not a problem.

Cordy,
What may be causing you problems is that the spring assembly must be lined up perfectly after you pop it back in the slide. Before you remove the spring assembly pay close attention to the alignment on the aft end and duplicate it when you reassemble. It has to be aligned both vertically and horizontally to work right.
