Ladies and Gentlemen,
Just picked up a brand new Pietta Smith Carbine. Was looking it over and it has a very deep flash hole pocket. I have read in this and other threads about some of the workarounds people have done, such as using high temp JB weld to fill it somewhat. I have not shot it yet so I do not know if it is going to have ignition issues, but am preparing for it and would like any input from you all.

Bob Gorsky fixed mine. Filled in the hole, and silver soldered the clean out screw while he was at it. He can explain the process. It worked, was quick and reasonable.
By the way, I tried the Hi-Temp JB Weld and blew it all out at 1 skirmish.
