TR Triggerhappy arm gun removal help

Postby Insurgent » Thu Aug 17, 2017 9:48 am

I want to make my own Metalhawk from TR Triggerhappy. ButI want to take his arm guns off. The ones that cover his hands. Anyone got any advice on how to remove them? Or the pins that holds them in?

What you need is a pin-punch tool. There's guides on YouTube on how to use them to remove pins, but pretty much, you identify the "knurled" end of the pin, then you press on the other side with the punch until it forces it out so you can yank it out with pliers. Be careful because it can damage the toy if you aren't careful. The tools are available on Amazon for pretty cheap too.

Hope that helps!

Thanks. That is helpful. :) Don't suppose you know how to identify which sized punch is needed for Triggerhappy?

OK, my mistake, what I have is an automatic centre-punch (one of these). If you're looking for something a bit more delicate but more manual, then this might do the trick.

Thanks. I'll have a little look into each and grab one.
