I've found a how-to on removing the rivet, but haven't found anything on installing it. Anybody point me in the right direction?

Try http://gunsgutsandgod.com/SBS%20tutorial.htm
Also try searching for that link to find others like it"Give orange me give eat orange me eat orange give me eat orange give me you." -
I've read the gunsgutsandgod.com site numerous times. However there is NOTHING about the gas piston rivet. Hence, my post here. This is about the only thing I could find. It shows the removal, but not the install. http://www.ar15.com/content/page.html?id=76Last edited by wilit; 10-03-2006, 7:16 PM."If a man hasn't found something worth dying for, he isn't fit to live." - Martin Luther King Jr.

I havent replace the piston for a US part, but, it is only pinned in you should just be able to thread in the new piston and press the pin back in.
If the new piston requires drilling a new hole, I would thread it in tight, back off a quarter turn and punch it probably at TDC and drill it just undersized and them press the pin back in, file as needed.
My .02 cents...teach your children well...Comment
