Trigger Pin Removal Punch for the SA-35 and BHP

This Trigger Pin Removal Punch is a dedicated tool for drifting out the factory trigger pin on SA-35, BHP, and Girsan MC P35 pistols. The standard Hi-Power trigger pin is a tight interference fit; using an undersized or ill-fitting punch risks marring the frame, peening the pin, or damaging the surrounding finish. This punch is machined to the correct diameter and tip geometry to engage the pin squarely, minimizing lateral stress on the frame ears during removal and reinstallation.

Compatibility

Key Features

Install Difficulty

2/5 – Requires a bench block or padded vise, a light hammer (brass or nylon), and this punch. The trigger pin is drifted from right to left. Watch the installation video linked below for direction and support technique.

FAQ

Why can’t I use a standard roll pin punch for this?

Standard roll pin punches have a crowned tip that can walk off the pin, scratching the frame. This punch has a flat, full-diameter tip that seats flush on the trigger pin head, reducing frame contact and the risk of denting the steel.

Do I need to remove the trigger shoe to use this punch?

No. The punch is used to drift the trigger pin out of the frame while the trigger is still in place. Once the pin is removed, the trigger lifts out. Refer to the manufacturer’s video for the full procedure.

Is this punch compatible with the Girsan MC P35?

Yes. The Girsan MC P35 uses the same trigger pin diameter and frame geometry as the original Browning Hi-Power and the SA-35. This punch is a direct fit for all three platforms.
