I just received an 1860 Pietta from Cabelas. The initial cleaning says to remove the barrel wedge, and I've seen a YouTube of someone doing that, but I've given this thing some SERIOUS smacks with a rubber/urethane faced hammer and its not moving a bit. I tried a small dowel which just splintered down under the spring tab of wedge and I had to painstakingly dig the pieces out. I'm worried about damaging the gun by applying additional force...any tips?
