I just bought a pedersoli sxs and the barrel was loose. I own 3 and all of them I have had to do this. The newer ones have a more robust pipe where the wedge goes through. I didn't notice this difference until it was too late.I used a punch to bend the slot in the pipe the wedge goes through but bent it a little too much. I tried to open it back up but accidentally cracked it. It's still soldered to the barrel and no damage there but the slot cracked. I think the proper fix or at least a sufficient fix would be to solder it. I understand there are 2 different kinds of solder that can be used. One where much less heat is needed and won't affect the blue as much. I would like someone in my area, the piedmont of NC, within an hour and a half or so of winston, greensboro, high point. If there isn't anyone localish I would ship
It to someone, maybe a member or whoever can handle the job. I do realize it won't look so pretty, but it's hidden under the handguard and I'm just looking for function over everything. Any help is appreciated. Below are some pics of the damage.
