Gary,
I think if you will pull the slide back and insert the small end
of the takedown tool between the opening of the barrel
and the slide you will find that it is about right to hold it
to punch out the pin.

garymass:
Ok I will try that I must have been a little off the first time but hey I think we all were, first time that is!;D

tracker:
You got that right.

From another post:

CVPC 3 /4 X 1/2" reducer coupling. 1/2"CVPC pipe.
Cut the 1/2" pipe to 3/8" install into coupler with a 7/16" socket. If you need to file down the 3/8" piece more, you can pop it back out with a screw driver. The pieces can be bought in a hardware store in the water section. Parts should be less than $5.00. I bought a 1' piece of 1/2" pipe easy to hold to cut. Feeler gauge 22mm. cut out 2 sections from the hole in the center of it
 
 
This link tells a story of another device   http://www.patentgenius.com/patent/7240450.html

What is the role of the 7/16" socket and the 22mm feeler gauge?

Thanks in advance.

As my memory serves me (ha ha) the socket is just the right diameter to use as a driver to push the smaller pipe into the larger fitting.
The outside diameter of the small pipe is the same as the inside diameter of the larger fitting (zero clearance)so that size socket is just a shade smaller in outside diameter;so the socket is tapped lightly with a hammer against the smaller pipe to recess it into the larger fitting.The socket is withdrawn and the pipe and fitting remain together in a press fit.
The feeler gauge was used as stock(material) to fabricate another tool which I think was used to keep the recoil spring  compressed for reassembly.
Also the type of pvc pipe and fitting was very important to get the proper clearances;just don't use any old pipe.Make sure the grade of material,denoted by the letters CVPC is used.
