Does anyone have an extra front top plate rivet they want to sell? The one that goes all the way through. I accidentally installed It back wards and on the left plate the rivet filled the chamfer and ended up flat with a big gap around It. Thanks.

LOL, This made me laugh, Cuz the only thing 1919 related I own is ONE rivet.

Can I have it? just kidding. Well all I can say is if you say your prayers and drink your milk some day you can save enough parts one at a time to build one. Ha Haa!

I can send you one or you can use a piece of 3/16" diameter mild steel rod

I dont know, If I keep setting rivets back wards Ill never get the gun built! It looks good and All the holes line up nice and straight when I screw everything together. Everything is going to be put on hold for a while because my bachelor party is this weekend and I'm getting married on the 17th. I will defiantly keep you posted on the progress though. Thanks for drilling It for me.

Backward rivets are very dangerous! The bullets can exit the rear of the gun and kill ya.

congratulations on getting married, sorry to see you'll be leaving the board though

 

[MSG]

What'd you do, buy someone elses rivets? My set includes two front Top plate rivets.

Next Cali Build Party Project

So the next Cali build party will include a session "Build your own ball and chain."

Best wishes for the wedding, you've got two weeks to spend like there's no tomorrow.

Married nearly 30 years here, some of them even happily.
Still waiting for her to buy me a new toy... not holding my breath waiting any more.

As a matter of fact I did make a buddy a set when he got married, used an old bowling ball, a heavy eye bolt, chain and made a metal clamp that would go around his leg that could be fastened by a lock. You should have seen his new inlaws eyes when he opened it.

Well my best man is here to take me to vegas for my bachelor party. Hes pretty crazy so can everyone please say a prayer for me!

I spent my last anniversary building a 1919 at Brian's Build. Best anniversary by far.

MSG is the best as far as rivets sets go. I got rivets from coles and oow before I learned better, now all my rivet needs will go to MSG. His sets have extras rivets and they are only $18 bucks OOW was 30 somthing... coles was $25 and nether set included the correct size rivets for the rear cartridge stops. MSG are correct... thanks..for a great product.. B2B
