sounds good, have to order one asap. Thanks
So was it a new build? Wasn't set right and your forced it ?
A fat center punch can do it. Harbor Freight has a cheap set that will work.
I tried a ball bearing on a bayonet rivet and had lousy results but a big center punch delivered more force and a better flare.
Got the part Via Apex , fast shipping and I also ordered the same part from K-Var and haven't received that in yet (ordered the same time). What size punch is that you used Ray?A fat center punch can do it. Harbor Freight has a cheap set that will work.

So I tried and couldn't budge it to Mushroom out, maybe because I don't have a Vise. So I called a couple places and one shop said they would call back and never did so I was pressed for my only day off in 2 weeks so I was waiting in the meanwhile for Pullman Arms to have the owner say if it was ok or not to bring it down (and wait for it) and well I got the OK . Drove an hour there and Took about 15 min and they said it was all set!! told me I didn't have to pay for it. .....How nice is that?
