Default Need AACQ-4-6 rivets

Help,

I am trying to finish my RV-6 canopy and need longer rivets for the front bow were I have put shims. The drawings call for AACQ-4-4 (1/4" grip) and state to use shims to level with the windshield and use longer rivets if necessary. Vans 2005 catalog shows an AACQ-4-6 rivet (3/8" grip) which is what I need but I could not find it at thier web store. A phone call today confirmed that they no longer stock them.

Does anyone have any AACQ-4-6 rivets they no longer need? I could use approx. 10 of them. Has anyone used another rivet for this application? It is a 1/8" dia, flush head with 3/8" grip range, alum shank and alum pin pop rivet.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.
