    'but receivers should not be brazed - not even hard-soldered.'

    Hard-soldering IS brazing. Soft-soldering is what you do on copper pipe with various alloys of soft metal like tin and even silver. Can't use lead on plumbing pipe anymore but there's still a load of it out there. Even if this solder contains silver, it is not silver-soldering, which requires about twice the temperature of soft-soldering, with iron and steel getting 'orange-hot'.

    'Really Senior Member' Especially since I started on the original Culver forum. That had to be about 1998.

    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. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...
