Non-GS, I know, but judging by some of the posts I have seen on the site I am hoping someone can advise ...

I have some pop riveting to do with 6mm rivets.

My cheapo rivet gun does not have a nozzle for these, and it is hard enough working with 5mm rivets. To add to this there is very little clearance to one ode of where the rivets must be fitted, so I am looking for a rivet gun with a long, thinnish, nozzle.

The local tools shops around here only seem to carry the standard "hobby" river guns, which I already have; or they do not open at the weekends. This means I need buy over the interweb, so will have no idea what the gun is like until I have bought and paid for it :(

Anyone got any ideas, and recommend a reliable source? I did buy one last year on Flea Bay, but after fitting 3 rivets it disassembled itself and one or more components disappeared over th side of the boat I was working on :mad: Hence I would prefer to pay more to a reliable vendor of reliable equipment...
