I guess it depends on how strong your thumb is ;) I wouldn't want to do it without the tool. Call S&W up and they will send you the tool for free if you didn't get one.

I field strip mine without the tool....but it hurts!
I would use the tool, but I can't find my 1911SC's box anywhere. Have to look hard this week.

I used a standard magazine to dissasemble mine the first couple of times. Use the lip on a standard mag to push down on the spring plug and rotate bushing. Magazines with bumpers won't work though.
I switched out the guide rod on mine to a two piece. I leave the rod finger tight so I can take it apart by hand.
