    Can not be fixed.
    7075 is non-weldable.

    I figured as much. At least it wasn't the MUR upper I was swapping it with.

    I've done dozens of these, just wasn't paying attention. Guess I'll leave it on the bench to look and remember to slow down next time.

    Complacency in the shop has ruined more sh!t than inexperience IMO. When you know that your out of your element, your very careful. When you think ya know, ya make mistakes. Speaking from more personal experiences than I care to admit.....
