I am trying to remove the four rivets at the rear of my Romy triggerguard. I ground down the rear end and tried to punch them out. Didn't work. Them ground down the rivet head on a couple of them on the other side and tried to punch it out. Again no luck. Is it best just to drill them out?

I usually grind them flush and drill a relief hole centered in the rivet and then drive them right out.

Thanks for the tip Worked great. One of the rivets was a PIA, but I got it out with a few hard whacks on the punch.
