Today I was shooting had a squib that lodged just past the forcing cone. In the process of trying to remove the squib with a rod the cylinder crane literally flew off the gun. Attached is a picture. Where the retaining screw holds the crane in, I guess the crane had a slide hammer effect and forced its way past the screw and gouged the crane. So a couple of questions, can the crane be repaired by adding a spot of weld and machining back down? I have the retaining screw, but is there supposed to be a spring and ball in the end of it because the screw is Hollow?
