trigger removal for tes

[GunAngel]

yeah, uh i was wondering if someone could help me with detailed instructions on how to remove the trigger pin and dont tell me to wack it with a hammer and nail... i spent an hour trying that and all i did was scrape off quite a bit of ano... i tried blow drying it and nothing happened.. i asked a friend and he said all it needs is a good wack...

plz help a fellow balla out

thanks

all I can say is get a hammer and hit harder, and try to put some WD40 on there to loosen it

what side are you hitting?

if you look at the trigger pin you'll see that there are "notches" (don't know what else to call them), on one of the pins side, and none on the other side

you want to hit the side of the trigger pin that has no "notches"

if you hit the side with "notches" your going to strip the hole and the next time you put the pin in it will be loose

Tesballer is exactly right, check the side your hitting and keep at it. The newer dragun pins are UNGODLY hard to get out. Ive broken punches trying to remove a couple of them.

I just checked my drallion and the pin on mine comes OUT the right side of the frame.

wd40 that helps :D

yeah i have a 2004 tes i think and ive been smashing that thing as gently and as ahrd as i can and it really wont even budge by the looks of it i would probably scrape that thing out before it just plopped...

thanks tho if anyone has another hint plz feel free

when you do that all that comes out is the trigger right?

The Tes doesn't have any king of springs or anything right.

Is it easy to get back in?

ok first off, make absolutely sure that you arent hitting the side that looks like a star shape.
If hammering it out doesnt work, try putting it in a vise, or a c-clamp (well padded on the side thats holding the marker, of course) and prop the punch, or nail that you have, wedged against the pin. have somebody hold it in place while you tighten the clamp/vise and that should push it out eventually. or at least enough for you to grip it with a pair of pliars to pull it out.
Also another reason why you need it really well padded, if using a vise, is so that the pin can move out, on the other side.
