New to riveting here.

Reading on basics show the impact on the manufactured head is
transmitted along the rivet and forces the bucking bar off the
bucktail. It then slams back, causing the rivet shaft to begin to
deform.

Because the bucking bar needs to move, does this mean it can not be
clamped in a vice? - Mike

I would not clamp my rivets in a vice. What kind of vice do you have in
mind?
Gambling?
Drinking?
Sloth?
Gluttony?
Fornication?

Or, do you mean "vise"?
