Hello!
I purchased a Tikka 512 double rifle in 9.3x74r. I picked it up today and found that the top barrel had pulled loose from its “saddle” and was no longer attached. I brought this to the seller’s attention but they are saying that some of those rifles had a free floating barrel. I sent photos of this muzzle compared to my 30/06 barrel set to show the difference. Does anyone know if this is repairable and how?

It looks like Midwest Gunworks can resolder shotgun barrels and ribs for $225 plus the re blue. Is there any other way?
