I have used a 1/4 inch drive, 7/16 socket to get mine out.  About a 6" extension.

It is easier if you take the trigger off first (socket goes right through then).

I did buy a tool at sportsmans warehouse a few years ago.

Yep, use a 6 point socket, 1/4" drive. Works fine.

Curious. .. What is the purpose of the tape?  Is this used as an alternative to the grease?
Is this the same as plumbers tape

Correct I never use grease to messy for me.  So I tape the plug and install it.  It takes a little practice doing this correctly in that you have to insure the threads in the breech are clean and dry.  If they have any carbon left in the threads it will snag the tape and tear it...
