AK-Builder Center Support & Rivet — Bulgarian-Style (No Flat)

Modern, builder-proven center support set patterned after Bulgarian receivers. The sleeve is round (no flat) by design for correct mag-well clearance, machined from alloy steel and heat treated for strength and long service life.

What it is

Bulgarian-style round sleeve (no flat), alloy steel, heat treated.
Matching center support rivet.

Why no flat?

Some countries used a larger-diameter sleeve with a flat for magazine clearance. This set follows the Bulgarian pattern, which uses a round sleeve (no flat).

Made to work together for best results

The sleeve and rivet are designed as a pair to deliver consistent forming and a clean finished head.

Typical formed head size (for reference)

Diameter: 0.225" (≈ 5.72 mm)
Height: 0.065" (≈ 1.65 mm)

Installation notes

For best results and to avoid rail crushing, install with a proper long-rivet/center-support jig that drives force straight through the rivet.

Includes

(1) Center support sleeve (round, no flat, alloy steel, heat treated).
(1) Center support rivet.
