Toggle Train Disassembly
 
I'm really not sure where to post this but here seems to be as good a place as any.
I'm trying to teach myself how to take a luger apart and put it back together again using a junk Vopo rework that I have. Most things seem reasonably self evident but I can't get the toggle train apart. There are large pins between the rear and centre section and again between the centre and front sections, which just won't move. Is there a trick to getting them out and will they only come out from one side or either side. Am I missing a specialist tool?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
John

Using your 1920 Commercial picture, I have added some notes. The pins are a tight fit and must be removed with the proper size drift punch and light hammer blows.

I would add that unless disassembly of the toggle joint is absolutely necessary... there is no reason to take it apart...

Thanks guys - I had completely missed the retaining pin on the rear link.
