Can a ruger MK 1 barrel be unscrewed from the reciever? My dad has had the inevitable happen when you buy, sell, and trade a lot of guns, he got smoked.
The gun is in very good shape but the roll pin holding the firing pin was not in place and the over travel has hammered a nice notch in the top of the chamber. The gun will not cycle and blows a hole in the case where the pin hits.
I guess I want to know if the notch can be welded up and the chamber cleaned of burrs and put it back in business. It seems the work would be easier if the barrel could be unscrewed.
