Definitely press or tap the pin out.  My rigger buddy and I have worked on
a couple of MKI's.  We used an appropriately sized punch and gently tapped
out the roll pins.  Here's Harken's directions on removing/replacing roll
pins.

Unfortunately, I don't have the diameter of pin to give you.  Harken no
longer stocks them but they may be able to give you the correct size
information.  You can them order them from mcmaster.com or another vendor.

Be sure to use the correct size.  If you use a size that's too small, you
risk having a pin work it's way partially out of the extrusion.  If your
swivel is up, you won't be able to drop it.  :)  Seen that a couple times.
It isn't pretty.
