Pls help me remove hollow firing pin stop for MKIII

What tool do I need to push out the hollow firing pin stop so I can replace the VG extractor. Also I want to thank Bulleye for his detail fieldstripping procedures which I was successful in replacing the VG sear and what a nice trigger pull that made. :D

You need a pin punch. A set like this will work.

Go slowly as to not damage the roll pin. The firing pin stop is 1/8th inch dia. You do not need to drift the pin all the way out of the pin hole, just drift it about half way out to the left. This will give you enough clearance to retract the extractor pin and remove the extractor.

I have updated my web help pages to reflect the newer hollow firing stop pins.
