Don't know for sure if we will have a "good gunsmith" on the scene, but sure not likely to have access to a nice lathe like Greg's - when we were in SV. However, we can find a hacksaw - even a powered steel saw on stand that cuts straight strokes - and probably can also scare up things needed to finish off the new end somewhat decent. But, a really precision edged and tightly finished/undercut crown could be a stretch during the gathering.

Marvin probably is deserving of better - would not want to insult his dignity.
