I was replacing the bottom seal on the doors. The rivet jammed and when I tried to pull it off that happened.
I have been going to the gym recently...
You are supposed to open the handles to release the rivet shank. Not use the bloody tool as a crowbar.
Anyone recommend a decent rivet gun. My other one stripped the thread on the adapter attachment
I've got this one - had it 21 years !!!

I had the same failure Mate same rivet gun they're just gash!I know. Didn't work. Tried unscrewing the back and taking it apart but that didn't work either.

Often known as "Die-cast sh*tite"Really? Now it's snapped you can see what **** alloy its made from. Buy cheap buy twice
If you get it to full extension ( ooh er!), then one pull is enough ( its getting worse ) - and if you can't, then multiple pulls will be requiredHaha yeh might give draper a miss for a while. I had seen those. Do they snap the rivet off in one go or does it take a few pulls?
