Hi Jer, yes! the "fxo" "code 122" thru center retaining pin / rivet, is the same whether it is on an aluminum or Bakelite bottom, It is a soft steel 3MM / .118" dia. X .800" long, and when squeezed between the two rivet sets, it expands the ends slightly, thus permanently holding the bottom on the tube?... Lot's of them have been pounded out and it's pretty tough on the magazine as a result? (Almost 100% breakage on the black Bakelite bottoms if not predrilled?) I try to make several hundred at a time, but man is it boring!!!!!!!
