Warning on Parker 3644

[Bruce Day]

Many composite and fluid steel barrels with cracks have been welded and shot for years thereafter.

Is this something they added to address the issue?

"The right barrel has multiple minute hairline cracks (before firing we recommend it be examined by a professional gunsmith)."

That sentence was recently added in the middle of the description of the gun. I wonder if the current bidders were notified of this fact.

As Bruce stated welding might be the easiest and simplest solution. I owned a gun that was repaired this way and helped a few of our members out by taking their barrels to the company that did the work. After the weld was polished out Dale Edmonds refinished the barrels and the repair was undetectable.
