Hey all! First of all I'm new here so hello! Onto the reason I am posting...
I am doing a Saiga conversion "as you could probably tell from the subject," and I have everything ordered and most of the parts have actually arrived. I was planning the conversion out today and I realized something: What do i use to secure the old trigger guard? I am reusing the old trigger guard, currently attached by rivets, however the rivets will obviously be destroyed. I have seen many videos and read many threads, and they all say to use a bolt or a rivet, however they never say what size. I am leaning toward the bolt/screw route, so, what size bolt/screw and nut combo do I need? Thank you!

Edit: It's a 7.62 if that is important
