Deuce Brake Shoe Rivet size for tool selection

[paramilusmc]

Did a search and read the TM and couldn't find the size of the rivets.

I'm buying a rivet tool and just want to make sure I am getting the right size tool for the job. Thanks

The correct rivets are Ø3/16", L 3/8", semi-tubular, brass.

I bought these from Jay-Cee, many years ago: BR7-6B
And this is their corresponding (air hammer)tool for those : TO-10-4506

Got the tool from Mcmaster and it worked well enough. https://www.mcmaster.com/6667A2/

Found a vice mounted rivet tool from DJS Tractor Parts on e-bay that did the trick on my M813 parking brake, had to modify the setting striker to fit my vice.
