Great investment!(10/02/2016)
This little rivet cutter made me save over $200 in gunsmithing work on my old 870 Wingmaster, which had been sitting in the gun safe for years because of a ''too-expensive-to-replace'' broken ejector spring. The instructions provided with the tool are very clear and allowed me, as indicated, to re-use the rivet to lock the new spring into the ejector. The only thing I did differently than prescribed by the instructions was to drive the rivet cutter down on the tiny rivet head by hand instead of using a press drill. The rivet cutter being very sharp and the rivet metal being very soft, I was afraid to ruin the rivet using a press drill. It took me 10 minutes to cut the rivet head slowly and safely by hand (clockwise twist of the fingers with little pressure).
