I have an old Rossi 971 with a fixed firing pin (like the old S&W's). I broke the firing pin when dry firing (doh!) but got a replacement from M&M gunsmithing (thank you). What kind of tool am I supposed to use to rivet this thing on? Or maybe I should just shell out a few bucks for a gunsmith to do it?
