Maybe the rivets favor a certain rotation to facilitate removing.

Can't remember if this helped, but I had my 986's liners out once, and didn't break any of the rivets. How 'bout prying them a bit with a flat blade screwdriver and shooting some WD-40 into the liner perfs. ? I think I just gingerly (so as not to crush) grabbed each one with a plier, twisting as I coaxed them out.
