1903 H Grade Lefever "Best London Damascus Twist" with fractured barrel



Crack where a dent was (inexpertly) raised



The only fracture that I would weld and then shoot would need to be very close to the muzzle (where the pressure is much lower) and with an adequate wall thickness.
NO WAY would I shoot a gun with a crack in a dent welded. The wall thickness would likely be quite thin.

Or you could try this
