I prepped the surface extensively and allowed the JB weld to dry for several days. I say this because I have tried it and it did not work. I happen to disagree about a JB Weld fix job at the breech on a Sheridan. Ya'll are welcome to do with yours whatever you wish. If my pumper is not enough to complete the task at hand within the recommended number of pumps I'll go in the house and get a gun that will. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Pay close attention next time you pump your gun and see if you don't agree. If I'm gripping the gun by the wrist of the wood stock then I'm creating as much leverage to separate that barrel from the compression tube as I possibly can. how many of us grip the gun at this position to pump it and how many of us grip the gun at the wood stock wrist when pumping? If I'm gripping the around the barrel and stock section just behind the rear sight and forearm (right where the plastic hand guard sits) I'm giving the whole unit the best possible support against barrel seperation. Various pumpers (Crosman/Benjamin/Sheridan mainly) came with a hand guard on the barrel. I don't doubt that it's a factor but I'm not sure it is the only cause. With the newer versions of the 342/92 we are seeing the rear sight as a culprit. Funny how you read something and it turns a light on in your head.
