A properly installed blind pin should not have to be welded over as it would be next to impossible to remove without drilling it out. I'm talking about a .0005- .001 press fit.

I'd like to see someone remove it without drilling it out.................. My 02 centavos

The term "Titanium" drill bits is misleading. As uzitiger stated, it is a titanium nitride coating, generally over cheap high speed dill bits(usually Chinese) and are a waste of money in my opinion. You're way better off to buy Cobalt drill bits and don't go over about 400 RPM's or you can overheat the drill which causes it to dull which causes the metal to workharden if you continue to drill with it.

As far as I can tell, all you need are 4 compliant parts and a US made M.B. or F.H. There are no more restrictions on either of them or any of the other EVIL features as long as your weapon is 922r compliant. ( no more than 10 imported parts) If i am wrong please correct me....................

[ Quote ] The rule is: if you take a foreign part, grind it, weld it, glue it, etc, if it still functions as the same part, it is still considered 'foreign made'. Could you give us a reference as to where this rule is located? I would like to see it in print. Is it in a BATF letter or what? I've never seen any such ruling, has anyone else?
