I will be brazing a receiver for a derringer kit. Have never done it
before. Have access to an oxy/acetylene torch but need advice about which
solder to buy. The ATF won't let the kit vendor give instructions.
A friend of mine says silver solder is the way to go but there are many options. There are the expensive rods that work at low temperatures. http://www.muggyweld.com/?view=ssf6 Only 1,150 deg. ~$80
Or standard solder from Home Depot that is ~$30 for 5 sticks http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/catalog/servlet/Search?storeId 051&langId=-1&catalogId053&keyword=brazing%20rod&Ns=None&Ntpr=1&Ntpc=1&selectedCatgry=Search+All Some of them only require propane, not O/A.
These are the 11 gauge sideplates. http://theflatspot.weebly.com/derringer-45lc410-sideplates--breech-face.html In case you're wondering, this is an old catalog and the prices have gone up significantly.
I downloaded the "Brazing Book" referenced in the instructions. It's 129 pages. Too much information.
