First Wamali Firing Test!

This is the first time that I have fired a live round through a development gun I am working on. Needless to say, this was informative!

I think the reason the gun broke is that, when it cycles, the hammer is putting too much upward pressure on the bolt carrier group. this pushes it up, which tilts the front down, moving it like a lever-against the thinnest part of the print holding the two together. obviously this needs to be thicker to pinch the two together and prevent that lever from torquing it.

The next one, with this fixed, should be printed by tomorrow.
