I have owned a Trylon in which most of the upper sections used rivets.
This is not the norm, though. I believe it was quite an early model -
or someone choose to use rivets - as I would agree that currently they
are shipped "knocked down" with a bag of bolts/nuts with captivated lock
washers.

Umm, I don't know what Trylon you looked at but they all use nut
and
bolts. In fact most of the nuts have little imbedded star washers on
them which
makes them real easy to use.
