I've been over to Numrich and Brownells for about an hour now, and I can't seem to find the right tool to remove the barrel on my S&W 422. I also searched here, but couldn't find the answer.
How do you get them out?
I'm loathe to use a normal screwdriver, as I'm afraid it'll screw up the barrel and/or retainer.
I did find this:

But the guy has no other auctions. Looks to me that he has what amounts to a cylinder that has two little "ears" which fit into the recesses of the retaining nut. I suppose I could get the dremel out and re-purpose a cheap old socket of the appropriate diameter, but if there's a tool available, that would be better.
Also, does anyone know if they are right or left hand threads?
Thanks in advance. I bought the pistol when they first came out, and have never had the barrel out. I'd like to get in there and make sure it's clean and such.
