yes you can.

Sorry I don't have any answer for your questions. Maybe a more experience member can chime in. I'm glad you found a work-around. Unfortunately past experience has taught me that just buying the right tool up front will save me extra time and money in the long run. I'll buy a tool even if I don't think I'll use it again. Of course I don't always follow my own intuition. Case in point I was able to remove the pin spring with a generic snap ring pliers. Broke the first set of replaceable tips on the pliers but after a couple of tries got the spring off......well it actually got itself off by shooting itself across the room?. So I went and bought a more expensive set of snap ring pliers to reinstall. Worked OK but spread the ring a little too far and broke the spring in half. ? So now after ordering a new spring clip and spending $13.00 on shipping I finally find this thread and hopefully got the right tool. Good thing I like to tinker and didn't need the M4 for awhile ?
