[QUOTE="762x51, post: 1885287, member: 94220"] the crack is in the logo. have the crack ground out a little and have it tig welded then sand/grind it smooth or have it turned smooth on a lathe and paint with some high heat paint or get it cerakoted. it'll mess up the logo but they're out of business so who cares? mig welding would impart too much heat on it which would weaken the metal and potentially allow it to crack it again. you could also warp the tube slightly (even though it may look fine) which could result in baffle strikes. the aesthetics would be my last concern as long as it functioned. you can always cover it with a suppressor wrap.
