I have tried and tried, but I cannot get the pin out on the SKS bolt! I tried using the gas port cleaning tool and a tap from a hammer last night per numerous searches here and elsewhere. Result: One broken gas port cleaning tool! I am thinking about running to the hardware store for a punch, but I can't believe that it takes that much force to remove it(I also wondered how will I get it back in if I have to use a hammer and punch to get it out). Does the extractor need to be under tension or forced open/out? The firing pin is free and moves, but I would like to get it apart for a good cleaning. Any ideas besides using a physical violence, a monster hammer and punch?
