Title: 1006 rivets
Post by: Geoman on September 11 2014 09:37:56 PM MDT
I've been waiting for a backorder of the rivet on the trigger bar on a S&W 1066 since June.  Still no love from S&W.  I've tried Brownells, Midways, Numrich, and other parts places with no luck.  Any ideas?

Does this part break often? I don't shoot my 1006 much and if parts are getting that hard to come by...

I've seen this company recommended several times but have never bought from them. Worth a call....

The rivet doesn't break but the trigger play spring does, and it is held in place by the rivet.  Mine broke, and I have had it on order now since June.  I did try Jacks  and they were in the same boat.

Maybe just a generic rivet outlet online.  Gotta be something close enough, if not a match that would work.

I bought a couple to have on hand, having 7 S&W10mm guns I figure I had better have some extra stuff.

Numrich is still out at the moment...

The trigger play spring even if it is cracked, or missing, the gun will still function provided the pieces don't jam anything up.  There is usually a audible clicking as the trigger is being rest and pressed.

You could get a piece of aluminum wire the size of the hole and make one, by peening it on both ends.
