Have an AM derringer with an existing .357 Mag barrel on it that somehow ended up
with a gouge straight down it's length.

Have acquired a replacement barrel for it in .45C/.410.

Question...
These things have a pretty solid pin at it's pivot point. Has anyone ever removed one of these?

I put it on the bench today and gave it a couple (not real hard) whacks with a proper sized pin punch and it didn't budge.

Anyone know... Is this something where they would use a press or should I be able to drift it out?

Many thanks!

Solved. Took it to a real smith as the barrel should be fitted anyway instead of just swapped.
