Gary you need to remove the grip frame assembly. Be very careful when removing. I like to remove the three screws by the trigger first. I then remove the two screws by the hammer. There is a very small spring that you will need to keep an eye out for. Once the grip frame is removed now you can remove the Allen screw that is by the rear of the trigger. then the front pin can be removed , so the other two retaining pin springs can be removed.
Now for the fun part of polishing the pins, don't forget about the screws, the end of the cylinder pin, and the ejector rod crescent. I like to put the items in a cord less drill. That way they can be rotated when polishing. I like to start with 600 grit paper, then work my way up to 2000 grit. After the 2000 grit, I will then polish with a Dermal tool. I use the cloth buffing wheel with the provided Dermal tool polishing compound. Still rotating the items with the drill, and buffing at the same time. The ejector rod crescent must all be sanded by hand, but it can then be polished with the Dermal. Hope this info helps, I'm glad to here some one else likes to see the polished items. I would like to post some pictures of one of my Freedom's that I did some work to, but I'm not sure how to post pictures on the sight. I can put a link to the picture, but I would like to just put the picture in the post. Again Gary hope the info is helpful (stevejr454) Steve H.
