I saw this thread a few days ago an ordered some #12 and #10 drive bolts. I just got the #12 bolts today in the mail. The heads of the #12 bolts are A LOT larger than the heads of rivets. I'll let you guys know about the #10 bolts when I get them.

I am planning using them on the lower rear trunnion of a Bulgy SF build. Looks like these will do the trick.

Just got some 8s and they measure favorably in diameter to the rivets in the Tapco kit. Heads look about right too.

I just drilled a 9/64 hole into 1/8 piece of hard steel and drove a 1/8x 3/8 u tyoe drive screw into it to test the holdign power. It will never come out that I can see. I will use the 1/8 X1/4 to build for real. Wow! what a hold it has on that steel.
