The Amphenol barrels have a snap ring in one end that secures the internal
parts. Use a hacksaw to cut down to the snap ring and remove it. All the
innards will fall out.

For many years I used a dental tool to remove that snap ring without hacksawing
anything. Lately, I have been coating the PL-258 with some flux and using a
propane torch, making the solder flow all the way around in about 3 seconds.
As soon as it flows quickly pick up the connector with a gloved hand and drop
it in a cup of water. You can make a dozen hardline connectors for 3/4" CATV
hardline in less than five minutes.
