I even heard a rumor that the Ma Deuces are now built in Belgium, under license, and imported. I don't know if that's true, tho...
Dunno about Ma Deuce, but on USS LCS (S) 102, it wouldn’t be out of the question to machine the welds out. Problem would be to find ammo for her. But she’d be an OUTSTANDING ship for that lake: shallow draft, lots of firepower, lots of reach! Longer reach than anything Zeta-fags could come up with! The 3”50 could reach out at least 3-5 miles, I would guess.
