Looks a little light on the weld…of course it don’t need much…
I thought the same - but for the purpose it’s needed for - a weld is a weld….
Have you tested it yet ?
Soon. I just finished this today.

I left a PSA 10.5" upper with a 6" XM177 style flash hider at a local smith in Warner Robins back in 21. Supposed to be a two week turn around. About 6 weeks later he wouldn't respond to messages or return calls. I happened to catch him home/ his place of business one day and told him I needed to get my parts. He acted like I was wrong as hell. But when I asked how long it would take he couldn't or wouldn't give me any kind of answer. Thoroughly pissed me off.
Meanwhile I brought it back here to Perry and showed another local member what I needed done and he had it done in about a half hour. Granted the weld wasn't pretty but I didn't give a ****. I had gotten my flash hider from Charlie's Custom Clones and paid a little more but the hole was already predrilled which made the job a lot quicker and easier.

Damn for $100 I’ll get my lil welder going!! Maybe 30 second job?
That weld will break if tested. They most certainly got the new guy to do it. But I’m glad you got it done.
I’ve never seen where it was explained how a “pin and weld” should be done for that purpose either. So I suppose it is what it is.
