Hi All! I'm new to the forum. I recently purchased a 16" Black Hole Weaponry stainless Mid lenght, light weight barrel in Satin. I'm hoping someone can answer this question.
I live in the wonderful state of MA. This being said, I need to somehow attach a muzzle brake to my new barrel to make the politicians and LEO’s happy. I’ve never owned a stainless barrel and I’m looking for suggestions. My options are the following: 1. Pin and weld. 2. Weld 360 degrees or 4 small welds at 90 degrees. 3. Silver solder using 1100 degree silver solder. I have experience and the equipment to do any of them. However, with the satin coating on the barrel, I want to try to avoid any discoloration from heating. I like/prefer the silver solder method, but I’m unsure of the impact of heating the barrel to about 1200 degrees to allow the solder to flow. Any suggestions/opinions or experience would be greatly appreciated! |
