    I would normally call joining with silver alloy silver soldering rather than brazing which suggests the use of brass or bronze as the filler. Mind you I haven't done this stuff for forty years and so the nomenclature may have changed in that time.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Silver soldering is technically correct, as the "filler/joiner" is a different metal from the parts to be joined and the parent metal is not melted and fused as in "proper" welding.

    Sometimes the term "silver brazing" is (loosely) used to differentiate the use of a gas torch as opposed to the "other" sort of soldering, such as that I occasionally do on electronic equipment or what plumbers used to do before the advent of PVC pipes.
