I once had a close friend do a fine weld on the rear of a breachblock for me, then we filed it clean. It lasted through many rounds and although you could tell, it wasn't that obvious.

I always assumed it was not as strong as normal, however it worked and we did it fairly quick.

The retaining pins get worn and I have had several not want to hold onto the breachblock. Just worn down.
