Split rivet question

[viewoptic[TK]]

I remember an old template (made by Bill Hag) that showed the measurements for the side ab split rivet placement, Ive looked everywhere and cannot find it. Does anyone know where to locate it?

This probably has what you mean

 

 

Just bare in mine these are probably getting on for 15 years old at this point, so use them as a guide and don't follow them blindly.  Make sure you take into account current standards and practices.

DO's references

For Level 3, three domed head bifurcated (split) rivets approximately 5/16" (8mm) in diameter are present on the left side of the abdomen and kidney and are equally spaced along the depth of the armor and are painted white.  Note that the measurements are from the center of the rivet.  Rivets on both kidney and ab should line up horizontally.
