Got a new 14.5" barrel and flash hider coming.
Know of anyone that can tac weld/pin it for me?
Preferably in Houston.

I should have extra material to silver solder it. If you have access to a map gas torch its super easy

I was sort of leaning more to the pin/weld method.
The FH already has a pin hole drilled and I have heard that the solder method is rather messy and tougher to refinish.
I could be wrong as I have no direct experience either way.

I do mine myself. Drill a hole for the pin (I use a small set screw), dimple the barrel threads to give the pin (screw) something to grab, thread the pin hole for the set screw, torque the set screw down, MIG weld over the hole. Done.

I have done one before and will be doing another one in the next few days. As long as you take your time and do it right its easy.
