Trying to remove the sling loop on my FSB...took a 1/16th inch punch to it and gave it a good couple whacks with a sledge hammer...all I succeeded in doing was breaking my punch at the end of the nub.
Brand new punches I bought a few weeks ago from Home Depot for my AR

Drilling the shop head off usually works the best. Although I’ve simply taken a punch to the pin myself in the past.

Yeah you can usually just punch it out. Otherwise the drill method works great.

Sounds like you used too big a hammer and did not hit is square on.
All it takes is one whack from a carpenters hammer and the rivet pops right out. |
