FYI on K-frames

Thank you Rick for starting this post and including photos. My K frame while solid was a bit dented in on the bottom so I picked up another k frame and when I started to clean it up and inspect it more closely I was shocked at the weld quality. Good to know that this was common and not the result of some previous owners poor repair. That said, I will likely do some grinding and welding to finish what the assembly line started :).
