just chked bass pro-they carry one but im not sure it would fit your gun,however a simple socket with extention works as well if not better.not sure of the size but you can buy a cheap set for less than twenty dollars and then use it for other things old semperfi

Lightning and Buckhunter use the same tool.

I think the Traditions breech plugs are not hex on the end. I think they need a spanning wrench. If you can't find one, you should be able to build one fairly easily.
