    Absolutely Bobby Hoyt. My uncle brought me a 61 Springfield, all original patina, but missing a rear sight, nose cap, trigger guard, & bore was gone. Bobby relied it with an original twist .577. It shoots perfectly accurate and looking at the munzzle it's perfect. Can't even tell it was welded. Only clue is the perfect bore. I bought original parts that matched patina & the musket is amazing.

    The liner isn't "welded" in, it is epoxied in place....so don't put any heat on it!
