I'm in the process of replaceing my super sensitive snare cam slide. However, a rivet was sent to attach or secure the cam slide. Does anyone know what type of rivet gun is used to secure the rivet in place?
Thanks,

You don't need a gun to install it. Stick the tip of a Phillips screwdriver into the tiny hole at the end of the pin. Tap the end of the screwdriver (make sure you have a hammer head held steady against the head of the retaining pin on the other side of the slide gates,) whack it a couple of times gently until you -splay the hollow end of the pin- enough so that it will stay in place without popping out. That's why the pin is hollow! So you can spread the end to lock it in place. Kinda like a grommet clamps the badge to the shell from the back by being splayed.
