Reply:Have you considered repairing this.  The contact tip in the mig gun, if that is what you are referring to is just made of copper, fairly easy to drill and extract using an easy out extractor.  If  the threads are damaged a tap will restore the threads.As far as replacing the mig gun, you will have to provide all the information regarding what the  manufacturer, model and serial numbers of your mig are to the seller so he can provide the proper replacement.  You are depending on him to match the right gun to your machine.  Perhaps a local welding equipment store or welding equipment repair shop could better help you with this, especially if your machine is not very common."The reason we are here is that we are not all there"SA 200Idealarc TM 300 300MM 200MM 25130a SpoolgunPrecision Tig 375Invertec V350 ProSC-32 CS 12 Wire FeederOxweld/Purox O/AArcAirHypertherm Powermax 85LN25
