Not everything can be repaired. Ask Tim about my receiver that melted when pressure was applied.Quote:

I had a receiver that was professionally repaired. If I remember correctly, it had a crack in the front leg. The first time Tim put the wrench to it, it bent like it was made out of lead. Well, the receiver goes back for further repair. When it comes back Tim again puts the wrench to it and it crumples like a cheap suit. Something had happened to that receiver at some point in its lifetime that softened the metal to the point where even Tim couldn't save it. Stu never even had the chance to try to index a barrel on that one.Quote:

Today’s weld job worked out much better.
Glad you think so.
