Put grommets around said tube so there is room for the rivet to move and not jam up. Pin the back of the tube so it is secure.

The Complete Guide to Building an AK 47 This blog will teach you how to build an AK 47, by yourself, in your garage, with a minimal amount of tools, ak parts and knowledge - LEGALLY. Not a full auto, pull the trigger and dump an entire mag type. (That's not legal.) But a semi-automatic version. That fires once every time you pull the trigger. It's completely legal to build your own 'legal' firearms at home. As long as you do it YOURSELF. Meaning no one else can help you physically. And you follow the rules of making ONLY legal, semi-automatic firearms. Using your own ak parts. (The various sections of this tutorial include simple methods that might be used if you had a minimum of tools. Other methods are more sophisticated, might have been developed after some of the older simpler methods, but may require more advanced tools. At the minimum you need a drill and some BIG hammers. But preferably a 12 ton press from Harbor Freight. For a complete step by step tutorial I would highly suggest contacting [email protected] for his excellent Word and .pdf file tutorials. And [email protected] (buildyourownak on youtube) for his incredible video build tutorials.) I built the rifle in the picture above. (And several others pictured in this blog.) With a minimal amount of tools. Over the course of a few days. It was probably one of the most satisfying accomplishments of my life. How many guys can say 'I built an AK47 with my bare hands.'?! Not many. But probably more if they only knew how easy it was. Builders in the Khyber Pass on the Afghanistan/Pakistan border have been building them for decades. With nothing more than hammers, files and a little ingenuity:

Building Instructions http://www.legionarms.com/
922r Compliance:
In order to stay within the law your AK can not have more than 10 foreign made parts in it. Here are two easy calculators that explain regulation 922r and make it easy to figure out which parts you want to replace with US ones. Alot of the typical parts replaced are parts you'd like to replace anyway. Some common ones are the trigger group which makes up alot of parts towards your 922r compliance. And the piston. But my advice is to skip the piston replacement if you can. And replace something else that can simply be dropped in. Like a muzzle break or magazine component: http://jobson.us/922r/ http://thegunwiki.com/Gunwiki/BuildAkVerifyCompliance
Building Instructions: There are many different ways to build the many different AK variants. But most methods are applicable across the different types. My advice is to read as much as you can about the different build techniques. So that you can choose the ones that are right for your tool and skill set. There are basically two different types of AK's - milled and stamped. Milled is a receiver that has been cut from a solid block of metal. Stamped has a receiver made from bent sheet metal. You'll probably be starting with the latter. Further, most countries standard issue military AK47's are very very similar in construction. With the exception of Hungarian. And especially Yugoslavian. (Which isn't bad. The Yugo is arguably the strongest AK made. As it starts with an RPK trunnion. And all around beefier components.) The main difference in your build will be stamped versus milled. And standard AK vs Yugo.

And whether you use rivets or screws to attach the receiver together with the rifle. With a stamped build you will be starting with a replacement stamped sheet metal receiver. (Or building one from scratch - also called building from a 'flat'.) Or you will be welding a milled receiver back together. Or starting with a new milled replacement receiver. Then you will either be attaching your receiver with rivets (the traditional way) or with screws. I prefer rivets. But you'll have to decide that on your own:

Alot of the typical parts replaced are parts you'd like to replace anyway. Some common ones are the trigger group which makes up alot of parts towards your 922r compliance. And the piston. But my advice is to skip the piston replacement if you can. And replace something else that can simply be dropped in. Like a muzzle break or magazine component: http://jobson.us/922r/ http://thegunwiki.com/Gunwiki/BuildAkVerifyCompliance
Building Instructions: There are many different ways to build the many different AK variants. But most methods are applicable across the different types. My advice is to read as much as you can about the different build techniques. So that you can choose the ones that are right for your tool and skill set. There are basically two different types of AK's - milled and stamped. Milled is a receiver that has been cut from a solid block of metal. Stamped has a receiver made from bent sheet metal. You'll probably be starting with the latter. Further, most countries standard issue military AK47's are very very similar in construction. With the exception of Hungarian. And especially Yugoslavian. (Which isn't bad. The Yugo is arguably the strongest AK made. As it starts with an RPK trunnion. And all around beefier components.) The main difference in your build will be stamped versus milled. And standard AK vs Yugo.

And whether you use rivets or screws to attach the receiver together with the rifle. With a stamped build you will be starting with a replacement stamped sheet metal receiver. (Or building one from scratch - also called building from a 'flat'.) Or you will be welding a milled receiver back together. Or starting with a new milled replacement receiver. Then you will either be attaching your receiver with rivets (the traditional way) or with screws. I prefer rivets. But you'll have to decide that on your own:

rivet,
headed metal pin or bolt whose shaft is passed through holes in two or more pieces of metal, wood, plastic, or other material in order to unite them by forming the plain end into a second head. The button-head rivet has a hemispherical head; the countersunk-head rivet has a flat head made to fit a countersunk hole. A large rivet for building construction is first heated so that the pneumatic hammer used to set it can more easily squash the plain end into a head. When the hot rivet cools, it shrinks and pulls the parts tightly together. For critical work, holes are drilled and reamed to exact size; for most other work they are punched. Full tubular and split rivets can be driven through soft materials without the necessity of first making a hole; after passing through the materials, the rivets' plain ends spread out to form heads as they strike a hard substance. More complicated blind rivets are used when only one side of the work is accessible. The mandrel type is a tube in which a rod with an enlarged end is inserted. After the rivet is pushed into the hole, the rod is pulled back through, crushing the end of the rivet into a head and forcing the sides of the tube against the walls of the hole. The drive-pin type is a tube with an opening at the headless end smaller than at the head end. As the pin is driven through from the head end, it spreads the tube out over the edge of the hole. The explosive blind rivet is filled with an explosive; when the head is heated with an iron, the explosive ignites and expands the headless end over the edge of the hole. Rivets are made of steel, aluminum, copper, and many other metals, and of plastics.The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia™ Copyright © 2013, Columbia University Press.

Rivet
A shank with a head that is inserted into holes in the two pieces being joined and closed by forming a head on the projecting shank. The rivets must be red hot to be formed in such a manner and have generally been replaced by welding or bolting.

The following article is from The Great Soviet Encyclopedia (1979). It might be outdated or ideologically biased.
Rivet
a round shank with a preformed primary head on one end and a snap head on the other end that is formed during the riveting process.
Types of rivets include the buttonhead, countersunk, rounded countersunk, cylindrical, conical, and conical with a neck. Rivet sizes are specified by standards. In addition to standard rivets, special rivets, such as tubular or explosive rivets are also used.
Rivets may be made of steel, copper, brass, aluminum, and other alloys that are sufficiently soft for shaping the heads. To avoid electrochemical corrosion and the effects of temperature changes on the forces in the joint, the rivet must be of the same material as that of the parts to be joined.

A short pin, of a malleable metal such as iron, steel, or copper, with a head at one end; used to unite two metal plates by passing it through a hole in both plates and then hammering down the point to form a second head.
