How to remove trigger guard rivet?

Post image

I got my first kit in today from K-Var, and the trigger guard still has the head of the rivet stuck inside. What will be the best way to remove it?

Grind it off with a dremel takes 30 seconds.

Just get needle nose pliers and round off the bit stuck inside and it will slip out. Don’t drill it.

Very carefully with a drill. It’d be best if you can support both sides of the bend in a vice to avoid bending or breaking it.
