I guess no one is going to answer my question about the post that stated that Repros ribs were brazed in place. Well, were they brazed or soldered? Neither. I thought it was Elmer's Glue, but Raimey opined that it be JB Weld. ... :-D

I don’t know if anyone can say for sure that the production methods stayed the same from the beginning to the end. Perhaps they started with silver solder, got the money to make an investment in a braze furnace, tried that for a while, and either kept going with it or bounced back to soldered. Who knows? I am pretty sure the problems I saw, which, were three reproduction Parker’s, were failures to brazed joints. That’s all I’ve got. Best, Ted

"Parker Reproduction's barrels are hard brazed together rather than being soft soldered." -- quoted directly from Parker Reproduction company brochures.

Maybe that one was brazed on a Monday morning, by an employee with a hangover.
There's brazing, and then there's brazing.
The name of the process doesn't determine the quality of it.
May God bless America and those who defend her.

I was asking about the ribs, not the lugs. If the ribs were brazed, as a previous poster stated, then brazing the lug back in place would not be as difficult as with soldered ribs.
