Trouble removing FSB

[Ryegye]

I was trying to remove the FSB on my AR today and the pins will not budge. I ensured I was tapping them from the correct side. After a while I gave up because they had not moved one bit. The only thing I accomplished was taking some chunks out of the pins. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get these pins out? Thanks for any help

They are roll pins and tight as hell. Every set I ever took out ended up being trashed. I keep extra sets around now. I use hardened steel punches and a healthy hammer.

Thanks for the help. Well it's good to know that this is common and they are supposed to be like that. Time to order some new pins.
