Tubular Rivet kick press

Has anyone used one of these older rivet kick press? 

Im thinking about buying this as an alternative to a newer Heritage kick press.

It's made by The Tubular Rivet Co. Boston Mass. Looks to be well built but it might be a single loader. Maybe one could retrofit a new side tubular rivet loader.

I used something like that in my younger days, though we were riveting brake lining onto hoops for cranes.

Cant help with retrofit, ours was single. Then again, we put the rivets into the lining and then riveted.

I decided to buy it. Its confirmed, single loader press. I will not be mass producing anything here so it will do.
