Brass pin on grip- how do you remove this sucker??

[redarmy27]

Hey guys! I'm just about install my ULE body, but I need to remove this brass pin before I can correctly seat it. I see in some videos that it should just pop out. I've tried using a soft mallet a few times, but it won't budge.

Any ideas? I don't want to beat the complete hell out of it or it'll deform and won't come out at all.

Thanks!

Oh I'm trying the hammer my friend. I'm hitting it like an anxious college student.

grr!

Best way to do it is with a press or a bench vice (use it like a press). Hammer will work too but a rubber type will be best. From the looks of it you've already beat the hell out of it and more then likely will need a file to un-mushroom it.

Put it in a vice, and put a long (1/4 drive) socket in front. It will push right out.

Got it! Thanks guys!
