    The FSB pins were not put in with an arbor press. One is not needed to get them out.

    They come out left to right. Lay the FSB/barrel on a block of lead on a solid surface and use a proper sized punch to push the pins into the lead block.

    Using more power than you need is bound to mess up something.

    Tell that to Bradis haha they bent a punch today trying to get my FSB pins out.

    I am looking for someone with the ability to get them out here in B-town too. my dad mentioned an Arbor press, so maybe someone in town has one of those.

    I have taken out dozens and dozens of FSB pins. Some were pretty tight.

    You HAVE to have a solid base and a quality punch.

    The most imortant thing is to have a block of lead on a solid surface. A concrete floor is a solid surface.

    It doesn't have to be a large block of lead, mine weighs about 1/4 pound and is pure lead.
