Yugoslavian M57 Tokarev hammer group quirk!

He may have been kidding but he was right about the persistence to pulling on it and using some sort of tool!

Turns out it was a thin layer of cosmoline between the sides was holding it in so applying equal pressure under the front & back of the hammer group using a screwdriver on one side lifting up allowed it to come out. After cleaning both hammer group & the frame it is now no problem!

Thank you both for your help!
