Automag III Windage Problem?

Yes Mike I know and you're right! 

Thanks, so much.  I wondered about modifying the recoil rod but not being a gunsmith or even very knowledgeable about working on firearms, I was concerned I might irreversibly mess something up.  I don't know if this would have any impact on the value of the pistol but at this point, I'm not that concerned about it.  If I can't field strip it, I can't properly clean it. That'd knock the value down anyway. 
Now, I just need to find someone local that knows what they're doing, that can machine the length down on the rod. And, find a sturdy bushing removal tool.  Next, I need to find out what the problem is, as to why this bushing is so hard to turn far enough to remove.  
I'm including a photo of my Automag III. When I received the weapon as an inheritance, it had a Leupold "M8-2X Extended E.R. scope attached.  It doesn't look it but it was filthy inside, complete with cobwebs.  I regretted removing the scope, because of what it does to the appearance, but could not rack the slide enough to even try to clean the gun.  It's in excellent shape, other than the obvious, but I've never fired it.  My stepson has, and it's a beast. lol. I tried to attach a photo of the pistol with the scope attached, but the system would not allow it.  I'll try to attach it in a reply to this post.
I need to do more research or take it to be appraised, but want to clean it up as best I can first.  Ok, I've rambled enough.  Have a great day, guys, and I appreciate the information and suggestions.  
Thanks again.

I finally got one too. Mine is just like all the rest it seems:
