The spring is best removed with a pin punch the proper diameter working from the side of the holdopen. Proceed slowly, it shouldn't take much effort to get the spring out. On bending the spring, once again, work slowly up the length of the spring to get the shape you need a little at a time, use needle nose pliers and the force of your thumb, and be REAL careful.
( the springs are not that expensive if you break one...see LugerDoc if you need one )
Of course, you could just replace the spring and save yourself a whole lot of anxiety over possibly breaking the original.
