Figured I could use some of these, but I don't know where to look. ??? Came from an Artec soloist distortion pedal, if anyone is familiar with it.

I have about 300 of those in the 50kB value stitting here doing nothing .... I don"t use them because they get scratchy really quick , I would suggest getting a regular pot and just hard wire it to the pcb ......

To answer the original question, those pots with the mounting brackets on them are referred to as "snap-in" pots:
