Poopsnakes2 Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 I was wondering what type of rivets we use for the holster application and also what type of rivet gun (or pliers) i should be looking for.
stasz Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Those are the size you want. If you search "pop rivet gun" you'll see the tool. They're under $20.
Poopsnakes2 Posted January 30, 2017 Author Posted January 30, 2017 That is what i saw at the home depot i thought it was odd as in stuck out too far. Thank you though!

As the gun is squeezed, the larger diameter part is pulled into itself, becoming about 2/3 short than it is originally. Then they skinny part snaps off and is ejected from the gun. It's a good idea to use washers on these rivets as well. 1
