Relaying the Rib on a Side-by-Side Shotgun | MidwayUSA Gunsmithing
This video demonstrates the process of repairing a loose top rib on a side-by-side shotgun, a common issue with older firearms. It covers identifying the loose rib using an auditory test, carefully lifting the rib by melting the old solder with a torch, thorough cleaning and preparation of the surfaces, and re-soldering the rib using 50/50 solder and improvised clamping methods. The finishing steps involve removing excess solder and cleaning the joint precisely.
