Picked up a used Rami recently and on teardown one of the bushings came out with the grip screw.  Have some penetrating oil on it.  Any recommendations on how to hold it when removing the screw without damaging the threads?  Any specific tool to use upon reinstalling it?

Appreciate any help.

You may want to use a soldering iron to heat the screw head to make it easy to overcome any loctite that might exist between the screw and bushing.  I can't remember how I held it.

I reinstalled my bushing with red loctite after it came out when changing grips.  I only used a dab of blue on the grip screws.

I don't remember needing any tool to reassemble the bushing.
