Description
This Trigger Pin Removal Punch from Apex is a simple, practical tool for anyone who owns a Springfield SA-35, a Browning Hi-Power (BHP), or a Girsan MC P35. If you’ve ever tried to swap out the factory trigger on one of these pistols, you know the factory pin can be stubborn. Trying to drift it out with a standard punch or a roll pin punch often leads to a marred frame or a bent pin. That’s exactly the problem this punch solves.
Machined from steel and heat-treated for long-term durability, this punch is built to last a lifetime. It is 100% made in the USA. The design is specific to the Hi-Power platform, which requires the trigger pin to be driven from the right side of the frame and extracted out the left. The punch is shaped and sized to engage the pin squarely, reducing the chance of slipping and denting the frame’s soft aluminum or steel. For just $20, it’s an inexpensive insurance policy against a costly gunsmith visit or a ruined frame.
Key benefits for your build:
- Protects your frame: The punch’s profile minimizes contact with the frame’s edges, reducing the risk of dents or scratches during trigger removal and reinstallation.
- Straightforward operation: Designed to drift the trigger pin cleanly from right to left, matching the factory spec for BHP and SA-35 pistols. No guessing, no fighting the pin.
- Lifetime tool: Heat-treated steel construction means this punch won’t mushroom or bend after a few uses. It’s a one-time buy.
- Made for your pistol: Works with Springfield SA-35, Browning Hi-Power (any generation), and Girsan MC P35. No modifications or adapters needed.
Specs & fitment: The punch is sized for the factory trigger pin diameter on the SA-35 and BHP family. It is not a universal punch—it is purpose-built for this specific job. For a complete walkthrough of the removal and reinstallation process, Apex provides a detailed installation video at the link below. This tool pairs well with a standard gunsmith hammer and a padded bench block.
