Care to explain? Looks like a shotgun barrel that has been messed up.I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. -
I think that might actually be a split 12ga barrel that's been JB'd back together..... Scary.
Then again, it is at the end of the barrell... but there's still a choke on it!The dude abides...Comment

yeah- the thing blew out- he JB'd it back together around the choke!!! WTF?? Never though I'd see it. I here folks joke about it- but actually JB your gun together. The real amazing part- he says he's been hunting with it for 2 seasons like that!Comment

Scary indeed.
Suggest barrel replacement.
JBWeld is good stuff but personally I would not trust it for that application.Comment

Whats the barrel length? If there's enough there he could just lop that chunk off and cut new threads.There are 3 kinds of people in this world.

The others, well......they just never learn.

I wouldn't trust the JB only... but if he put a hose clamp around the barrel in addition to the JB weld it should be good to go.
Amazing amount of courage involved both for the guts to shoot the thing after the "repair" and also to let you actually see the repair!

Kiba- you tookt he thought right out of my head- I thought it was missing the hose clamp too
I just repaired a GSXR exhaust pipe using POR heat paste, an extra metal plate, and a hose clamp. Works like a charm
