Yes. It would be very difficult to pull the shank through the flange without a rivet gun.
A Molly Rivet is much like a standard rivet except the shank on a molly rivet mushrooms out to grip a hollow wall. they still require the use of a rivet gun, they just have a much larger gripping area so as to not tear out of the hole they are installed into.
A bucking bar is used on the backside of a metal rivet to counter the force of the hammering on the other side.
I assume the rivet you are asking about is a "tinners" rivet and not a more common "blind" rivet (commonly known as a "pop" rivet). If this the case the tool you want is called a "rivet set".

upset -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Upsetting the rivet is to compress the rivet during the installation process. That can be done with a rivet gun to "hammer" the rivet against a bucking bar, or to use a rivet squeezer to compress the rivet.
The beef shank is the shank (or leg) portion of a steer or heifer
a rivet gun is a gun
A DD rivet is recognised by 2 dashes on the head of the rivet
To install a semi-tubular rivet, you will need a rivet gun, a backing plate, and the rivet itself. Place the rivet through the pre-drilled holes in your workpieces, align the backing plate on the opposite side, and then use the rivet gun to compress the rivet until it creates a secure connection. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for the specific rivet and tool you are using.
Depends on the type of rivet but most can be removed by drilling off the head with a larger size drill bit then pushing the rivet the rest of the way out. You will then need a rivet gun and appropiate size rivet to replace it.
