Jack..Bob answered the question Mark asked..Seriously, anyone skilled at TIG welding can fill that hole, just make sure they use carbon steel wire and leave a raised bead over the area ...you can file close to flush, then finish with emery cloth...after rust bluing, it should be unnoticeable

After that what's to get so serious about? Precious little information about the rest of the pistol can be forthcoming before Mark gets it. I spend many hours a month seriously helping those I can..and throw in a funny every once in awhile..when you get near 5000 posts you realize not everything on here is life or death. So a little humor is sometimes..humerous!

Besides I got a belly laugh out of this comment!
I must be missing something here. Why in a U-Boat would the people and their equipment (weapons) be immersed in water? They lived down there for long periods - I would think - in very dry conditions; except when they were getting bombarded???
