    AK rivet help

    So I am building three AK's all at once. Two Bulgy 74's and a Tantal. Curtis shipped one set of rivets for an AKM...hey it happens. Anyhow I was riveting the front trunnion when I noticed the mistake. Anyhow, I also noticed different "diameter" necks on some of them and I started scratching my head. Does any one have pics of a set of rivets that are labled to which go where? Could someone help me out by doing so? I am confused to where the "fatter" rivets go. Yes I am an idiot.

      Apreciate that sir. Next question. I noticed 2 longer rivets in the packfor the 74...I would assume these are for the scope rail thru rear trunnion combination? (most rearward rivets)

        By the way. The Tantal has three fat rivets for the front trunnion.
