I use a foot of safety wire. Attach the ends of the safety wire to the clip, slide the wire over a nail, hook or some other fixed object, and insert a dowel or other handle. Just pull to expand the clip. Usually the hand guard will fall away from the clip.

I would get the tool if you will be doing a lot of hand guard clip removal. Makes it simple and one is less likely to damage the hand guard. JMHO.
