3-jaw rivet guns? (or: "Ping Andy Dingley!")
"Lobster" wrote in message

I asked the query below tagged onto the bottom of an old thread, which may
be why it got no response, so I'm trying again in a new thread (and
x-posting to URCM too!)
Having looked around, all the rivet guns I can see appear to have two
handles (like a crimping tool) with a round nozzle for the rivet at the
tip.
Can anyone advise please? Many thanks.

When buying a pop-rivet gun, get a 3 jaw design, not a 2 jaw.
There's an extra size increment you can have, just from the grip, let
alone the effort needed.
Thanks for that advice Andy: now, as a total rivetting numpty, is it
obvious whether a rivet gun has a 3 or 2 jaw design? Never handled one
before. What about the Screwfix one which I cited previously?
