I am getting a Global receiver for my Romy build.  What would be the best rivits to purchase?

I already have my HF bolt cutters and have access to a press.

Thanks in advance,

You can get the rivets from Global, K-Var(if they have them in stock), or AK-Builder.  Get the foreign ones.  That's what I used. I have a set of US rivets but I didn't use them.  Didn't like the looks of them and they seemed to be of a smaller diameter than the Bulgarian, Romanian, or Polish ones that I have.  I would rather use the rivets that were designed to be used on an AK.  Just my preference.

+ 1 on the global rivets, i have use their rivets on all my builds and am very happy with the way they turned out, when you order the receiver order a set of the rivets as well.  McM

Mine are the correct size, not the undersized ones some are selling.
