Default Primary Arms Microdot question

I went to install my just-arrived PA Microdot "with removable base" this AM so I could go try it out...except the base would not come off. Yes, I removed all four screws (and the tension screw just in case) but it would not budge. I was afraid to try and force it off being sensitive optics and all, but now I can't go shooting today (at least with my new sight).

Any suggestions?

Do you have a non-marring delrin or plastic hammer? If you do I would give it a tap.

Smack the base with a plastic handle screwdriver and break it loose.
