Anybody here know where to get the proper punches and the technique to replace the staked hammer pivot pin on a Remington 870? Also, how do you remove the pin as it is staked in place? Thanks for the help.
 
I drill the flared out section off, then the pin comes out easily. A new pin is required and it is swaged. You can use a blunt centre punch that is big enough to flare out the end of the pin. I made a special punch.
 
Modified Punch?

Hi, thanks for the info, just what I was looking for. I'm curious about your modified punch though. If I just use an appropriate sized center punch and flare out the pin is that enough? Or have you modified your punch to do something more, like staking it in like a factory pin? Thanks again.
