My father was an engineer in the slip stick era. Rule of thumb for designing a pressure vessel. 1) Calculate wall thickmess 2) Add a safety margin 3) add 1 and 2 together 4) Double it.

1) Speaking as an old soldier it looks like it has an infinity of places to collect crap and jam and must be absolute hell to clean. 2) How much did it weigh ? 3) Why, oh, why - just ONE (1) mag per gun? Most of the time and effort of a production line is involved in setting it up. Once you've got it running, the amount of effort making each individual copy is negligible. "The first copy is a million bucks, the next one is free"
