Twist and tug on 'em. The pegs are probably rusted to the rubber sleeves. If the chrome plating has lifted and there's rust on the bolts, they must be replaced because that's what allows the caliper to slide freely. Lube the new bolts with high-temperature brake grease that contains molybdenum disulfide. "Rusty Lube" is one trade name I like but there are many others.
