Smashing Rivets.

Aspen79se

I'm having the holes I drilled wrong rewelded. When the receiver comes back I am going to finish up this project before May is over...hopefully. What is the best way to do this? The barrel rivet looks the hardest and the rear trunion the easiest. How hard is the bolt cutter method? Anyother cost effective methods?

Details. Don't know what your talking about. I think an AK. Never riveted on a gun. Millions on aircraft tho' Try Experts.

AK rivets. I believe the barrel and rear trunion mentioned above should've been clear enough.

Hey the bolt cutters work greatfor the front trunion and the short rivets on the rear tunion.You can do the rest with a punch and hammer and a punch if you are handy.If you can get someone to help it doesn't hurt to have an extra set of hands,search the ak files lots of info
