Any one have any tips on soldering? I need to put sight ramps on a single barrel shotgun and am having trouble with the process. I haven't tried it on the gun yet as I want to get it right the first time(right!). When I try to tin the parts I can't seem to get an even coat of solder.
I am using an oxy-acetylene torch with a small welding tip for heat. I couldn't seem to get enough heat to the metal with a propane torch.
It is Brownells High Force 44 solder.
Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated. (I've already thought of taking it to someone who actually knows what they are doing but where's the fun in that.)
