I'm rescuing a mid 1970's Model 70 I picked up as a basket case and I am down to the last piece. Looks like Bubba was busy with his cutting tool when he could not figure out how to remove the end cap so the nimrod cut into the edge where the pin locks the cap on and buggered up the side where the safety switch pin is so I can't even get that apart but it does still work properly. I know it's just aesthetics but I want it fixed. I have been looking for a sleeve for about a year with no joy. If I wanted to get crazy I could just JB weld the cap back on but I don't want to go down that road so it's either finding a complete assembly or repair.
I'm thinking a quick tig weld will do the trick to fill it back in, re drill the hole and file it smooth. Anyone know someone who could take on the tig job?
