I came across it in Brownell's last night after cleaning my (original) Series 70, which has a very tight govt. bushing that's hard to wrench into place over the plug. Decided I'm getting tired of the inevitable hassle of reassembling the recoil spring assembly every time I clean the piece -- which I love to shoot.
According to the description in Brownell's, the Briley may help solve my problem. The busing pivots easily on a collar that fits over the barrel. If this works the way it sounds, it would make it easier to get the bushing over the plug without needing three hands to keep things from flying all over the room.
If anybody's tried one of these, please let me know what you think of it. Or, if you have any other ideas on how to make the reassembly less adventuresome, please pass that along too.
