Does anyone know what type of rod I would use to weld a flaw in a post '64 Winchester 94 Receiver? Or where about's to go to get an answer?

Griff,
I don't have any personal knowledge of welding.
I was going to suggest contacting Cosby Custom Guns
{ http://www.cosbycustomguns.com/index.asp }, but they been hacked by JaCKal & BaCKDooR.
So maybe try
Mike Hunter aka Colt1849
417-453-6445
He's the one that did SteveB's 1886 remarking and bluing.

Joe & Mike, I had talked with Colt1849 and IIRC he said he stays away from the post '64 sintered steel receivers.
Val, have you done this with a Post '64? I have a guy that's willing to TIG the small repair needed, (weld up a screw hole that has become enlongated so I can redrill and tap.) But, he really wants to know what type of fill to use. Certainly don't need the surrounding metal to become brittle or....?

Tis actually two, the link and carrier. Both holes on the right side have been peened. ?The link so much so that the hole has migrated rearwarrd & downward. Needs a little filling in also! Mucho malo.
