Default Browning BSS SIDE LOCK 20GA

Browning Bss Sidelock 20 Ga.
From time to time customer brings firearm for service that truly impresses me as I discover that wood and metal craftsmanship is at very high level. Sidelock Bss is one of this firearns. Fit of all components is outstanding, also firearm has slick shape and looks that conforms balance and weight.

This customer shoots it regularly at sporting clays, every week and gun really never experienced much of need for my attention. Of course it's a machine and something gas to give up sometimes, it's a hammer link that was fitted too tight and snapped a part. Normally I will make new part but this time I decided to try something different:
link is sitting on the hammer, it's been tight welded, fitted and silver brazed. I'm curious if it will last, worth trying. Customer ask how did I handled small part thru all process, I show him Elgin watch that I just made parts for and tuned, he didn't have more qyestions.
