Screwdrivers or small pry bars is where I'd start
Put it in a vise so you don't have to try and hold it.
The lock may need to be unlocked ??? or maybe not

Its unlocked in the picture. I tried beating the pin out of it to move the spring but that wasnt working. I had a punch on it and used a mallet
