Yes you would need the rivet tool which is pretty much a modified C clamp other then that not sure if your going with a pined barrel or screw in just depends on the kit. I'm not sure if they are even offered in screw in

If you use rivets you will need a rivet tool, cost about $260, 12 ton press $120, Drill press $200-300, drill bits of proper and various sizes $120,trigger guard rivet jig $70. That should get you started if you your kit comes with all the parts needed to be compliant, if not, add the cost of those parts also. If you build just one firearm it's not worth the cost. If you plan to do more than one it can be a lot of fun and the cost gets spread out.

this guy is selling a jig. That will get you started. His thread says he built one so he should be able to answer some questions too. http://www.theoutdoorstrader.com/threads/435368-FS-AK-47-Trunnion-Trigger-Guard-Jig?highlight=ak+build+party
