Ahhh, nothing like sawing a shotgun in half for the first time!

Looking good, but I'd personally be looking at shortening and slimming down the forend as the proportions aren't quite right now with the short barrel.

Think English "rook rifle" and you'd know what I mean
Had to google those. Not sure if I will cut it back now that I think about it. I have stupid long arms and like being able to hold the gun out a bit further out

Well the rail was at the door when I got up so that was bloody fast. Now to find a way to mount it

Its coming along nicely Toby. how do you plan to fill the gap between the 12g barrel and the 9mm barrel.
its just a chamber insert so not an issue,
Righto guys I'm quite proud of where I have got to today. Can say its shaping up. Went out to our scrap metal pile that I half ass made a year ago and grabbed a cut in half digger bucket and cut a bit for the rail then tapped it and well yeah pics tell the story.
Might also add I pulled the gun to bits again had a good look and put it back together a bit different and it works like it did before doesn't feel weird anymore. Quite happy I went with my gut instinct and rec checked it or could have been bad later down the track
Question now is do I wait for the weekend to go to the shop with dad and use the mig or have a jam now on the arc

You have been a tinkering Toby. What the hell are you doing that for?
It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
MIG it later - further down the track you'll look a the quality of weld and forget the few days difference
How sbout silver soldering it? The join will be invisable using that method. Braising would be second choice. And say No to Arc!!!
I'm sure you lot will be glad I didn't have a go using the arc I wouldn't mind using a mig and making the cool spiral pattern.
I'll ask dad about the braising/soldering as I've never done though I've seen it done a few times so guess that makes me qualified enough to have a go

Easy flow 20 percent silver,bugger all heat required will suck into joint,just make sure they are a nice fit it doesnt like filling gaps.
"Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.
