I just ordered a batch of BSP-42 rivets from ACS. I looked at the rivets at rivetsinstock.com but the shear strength was less than what the cherry rivets were at ACS so for peace of mind I played it safe and went with ACS. (Safer for noobies.)

I'm a gen-u-wine tightwad. Looked at the price for CCP-42 rivets on ACS and choked. Looked on the Sonex web store and they were almost half the ACS price. Sonex, $35/500. ACS, $63/500. Emailed Spruce to see if they would price match. Answer was yes.

Sonex web store: http://www.sonexaircraft.com/eshop/cart ... ory_id=291

Go here: http://www.aircraftspruce.com/contactus.php and ask for yourself. Amy Stinchcomb was the person that responded to my request.
