I've noticed that, some of the necks seem really thin, whereas others are tough hombres! I use a 2 Kg metal mallet when airing CRTs, plenty of force to be had there, especially if I just drop it onto the neck from about 3 or 4 feet.
Once I had a tube break in such a way that the gun shot forward into the shadow mask! It looked really weird seeing the front of the gun protruding through. The phospor had been blown away from the inrush of air.
