Just recently I acquired a Remington Model 11, SN 332xx and after a good cleaning to remove the accumulation of several years of grime and dirt I noticed that a knick in the finish on the receiver was in all actuality a small crack in the receiver.
The crack is located on the upper rear corner of the breech and is about 1/16 of an inch long. I've been wondering what could have conceivably caused a crack in that location and how much it will affect the guns operation and if it's possible or even wise to have repairs attempted.
I hope this made sense to anyone who reads this and hope I get some insight into this matter.
