Stubborn Pin

[Brian Dukes]

I'm trying to get an action apart on an older Remington Woodmaster semi auto, and I'm having trouble getting the 3/32" drift pin out of the operating handle. I've already broke a 1/16" punch and bent another; I'm trying to soak some oil in. I'm affraid to whack it too hard becuase the pin is in the bolt, which is floating in the action, and probably shouldn't be subject to too much abuse.

Any suggestions?

Brian: Are you driving it from the top down? You'll not have to worry about damage to the action by driving the pin out.


(edit) 3/32 punch would be better.
