Do any of you know how to open the hands of ammo handlers? My Dragon M2A1 came with a crew, but none of them have their hands open enough to hold the shells. I have gone at them with an auger and a heat gun. They just won't budge. I don't want to have to resort to cutting them open. That usually looks just plain sloppy. And I mean like Madona going down sloppy. Sorry for the image, just trying to illustrate. Can anyone help me?
TIA

Thanks. I got the heat gun and metal pin method to work, though. Was at it around 6AM here. Didn't even have time to finish me first cup of coffee.
