I have been told that removing the Hornets AR has been a difficult task, due to the close proximity of the air tank to the AR. I found a very simple solution to this, by using my vernier calliper and measuring the depth of the barrel to the top of the AR, then by setting up my Dremel to not go deeper than that depth.
The best tool to use was tool number #932, the Aluminium Oxide Grinding Stone. This tool also has a small cone indent in the top of the tool, this conveniently broke out the posts very quickly (high speed tool). Once those were out the job is very simple.
In the photo below is the tool set-up and the critical measurement of 38.50mm (see photo for explanation):
Too fully remove the AR, just carefully Dremel around the edges to allow the AR parts to drop out. In my case I could not be bothered with the full removal, but the AR's seal is broken, so i get the full pressure all the same.
Hornet after AR seal breakage. Tank is fine.
