    AR 15 Ejector Pin Catastrophe. Any Help?

    So I'm in need of some help.

    While I was removing the ejector retainer pin from my bolt my punch snapped off as the roll pin was driving out. Now I'm stuck with the piece of punch lodged in one side and the roll pin sticking out the other. Any help?

    Put some electrical tape on needle nose pliers and pull the roll pin out. The tape will help protect the roll pin from being gouged by the pliers. One you have it out, then use pliers to pull the punch out or a hamer and a nail or another punch to push out the broken piece.

        Can you hammer the punch through to get the roll pin out?

            Hammer and a nail. Just cut off the point on the nail so you have a flat surface to pound out the punch piece.
