[HOOKED ON HISTORY]

If that damage was not done under combat conditions bubba deserves a sound thrashing. I am not a welder could it be tiged & refinnished?
Please post some after photos of the repair.

Yes, it could be, but a warped barrel would be the result.

Absolutely correct. I know, I've done it. However, I also straightened the barrel. I suggest don't try it though...
