You don't need any tools for that, although a dental pick or something similar would make it easier to remove the old seals. Maybie an 1/16 allen key to take out the field stip screw, and a nickle to take off the PT, other than that you don't need any tools.

There are other options to using a dental pick. You can use a hard wood toothpick, or you can take a fork, and bend down the other three spikes so only one is left, or you could use a nail fial from a pair of toe nail clippers (thats what I use), or a small pocket knife blade, or a skinny screwdriver, tons of things you can use besides a dental pick. Just offered some incase if you can't find a ental pick. Hope I helped ya out. Bye.

Go to a Dentist and ask for his old and ready to be thrown away tools. Assure him you have no plans to do any bathroom dentistry! Tell him/her that you need the picks to reach into tight recesses to remove machine parts and O-rings. No need to mention paintball at all, unless you think he may play himself!
