    Made contact with Joe Bowles, he no longer welds knock down pins on auto-loaders.

    Anyone know a gunsmith who still does this ?

    Try a small dab of JB Weld. Surface must be super clean. (it does work)

    Just find a hot rod or classic car shop. I always slip those guys $40 to give me a tig weld and then I adjust it myself using a dremel or file.

    Try Dean Harris at Skeets Gun Shop in Tahlequah OK. Dean has done TIG welding and other shotgun quality work for me in past years

    I had Doug Hubbart do one for me. Did a great job and it was $80 plus shipping, if I recall correctly.
