screwdriver and needle nose pliers use a flathead screwdriver to pry it up just enough to grab it with plier's it would be pretty tough to hurt anything remove the snap ring and silencer ring will just fall out

Use a small flat screwdriver that will catch on the tapered end of the snap ring. Pry it up just enough to get another small flat screwdriver to slip under it. Now you are started. Work it up with both drivers till you can grab it with a needle nose plier and lift it from it's groove and free it. Lift out the ring.

WD-40 will be your best friend!

Of coarse use a good cleaner afterwards to get the wd-40 out.

I did that and used some dykes to get it out and it slid out like butter.
