I came up with another way to do this, several years ago, on my BSS duck gun that I've shot off face. A BSS's hook cannot be welded because of the way they were made, but a shim from aluminum HVAC adhesive tape works perfectly, and lasts for about 300 rounds before needing replacing. The aluminum measures .003" and has peel off backing that exposes a really good adhesive. I just clean the hook good with alcohol and a cotton swab, cut a small square of tape with scissors, peel the backing off, put it in place, then carefully cut away the excess on the sides of the hook with an Exacto knife.
I know I should have the pin replaced and expertly put the gun back on face but it only gets used to shoot ducks and it'll outlast me the way I'm doing it. This winter I will most likely Loctite a piece of .003" steel shim stock in place.
