kuduman Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) Any advice on how to get that bugger out? Is it tapered or something? A little pounding didn't work. Would like to know if there's a secret before the serious pounding. Also, what's the best source for a replacement pin? I'm assuming I'm going to ruin it before I get done. Thanks.

mike cyrwus Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 you gotta get it from an angle. Get a bright flashlight and knock it out from inside that cavity. Youre prob hitting the wrong side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openclassterror Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 The pin is offset from the access hole like a Benelli. They are NOT super tight, so if you are banging on it, something is not right. Use a light to look into the hole opposite the end of the pin you can see, and you will discover that only about half of the pin end is accessible. Use a small punch to tap on this end, being careful to keep the punch on the partially exposed end. Once it moves a little, you can usually grab the protruding end with smooth jaw pliers or soft vise jaws and pull it the rest of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 So .. if you replace it with a Benelli extractor, do you reuse the Stoeger pin, or use a Benelli roll pin? I'm asking because if you ever need to replace it again, how do you get the roll pin out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openclassterror Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Roll pin removes in the same fashion. But, I re-use the factory solid pin myself. Not a huge fan of roll pins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barracuda Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Just for the sake of asking, would part #378195 on Midway be a suitable replacement for the stock pin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kuduman Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 Well, I've buggered it up good. I guess I hammered too much on the wrong end-- I've broken three punches on the correct end-- no movement. Got a more mechanically adept (and equipped) friend; maybe he can get it out.
