I was about to order a Tapco rivet and center support set but noticed something strange about the center support rivet. It doesn't look ANYTHING like the one that I got from Joeken. I used a Joeken center support and rivet on a Tapco flat that I bent the other night and it set like a champ. The Joeken website states that they are Bulgarian.

Now..... that rivet on the Tapco picture shows a REALLY flat head for that rivet. Is that just an old photo or is that the rivet they sell? I want to make an order from Copes but will wait until I get a response.

thanks,
Ron

Quoted:
The rivit for the center support is the flat type shown in the photo. You can turn down the rivit head to create more of a original look. If I remember correct Joekens center rivits have the correct head but the length is a little longer. Is this correct?



I used a Joeken/Bulgarian center support and it looked just like a factory AK when I was done crushing it. Not to long... not to short.

thanks,
Ron
