We are soldering the new latch block onto the barrel of the 1905 Ithaca Double Shotgun. Invited a friend over to the shop to give me a hand.

I think a video of you two talking gun design would be great. That and a few of Rick’s colorful stories would make for some great entertainment!

How did I miss this? Thank you Bill and Ricky Very informative always shied away from soldering due to my failure rate :)

Finally a fantastic gun channel !! Can’t believe with all my searching this one evaded me?? Enjoying the friends and the old feeling you used to get from gun shows, minus the smell of pipe tobacco. Lol

Great to see more progress on this shotgun. The experience in the room made that seem very easy. I would have made a pigs ear of it, no doubt!

I enjoyed the video, but still maintain that a dab of Eastwood's Tinning Butter would have saved you some sweat and worry!
Now I'm anxiously awaiting your rust blue procedure on the twist steel barrels!!

I got a question for you. I have a cooey canuck jr 22 and butt stock mount broken right my question is the barrel weld able to reweld new mount back on

What solder is used? How do gunsmiths get both barrels correctly aligned for proper shot placement on target.

Gosh, I could have given you a nice piece of t r a n s i t e to work on instead of that plywood cut off. For flux, a little bit of borax mixed up with Vaseline Maybe instead of acid flux? And I guess that's 50/50 lead t i n that you guys used
@robertrandin9568 1 year ago
Is there a particular type of wire for the weld that you have to use or just the regular plumbers wire
