To shoot or not to shoot uncut OpRods?

[browningautorifle]

Yes Latigo, I read and heeded the warning from Billy Pyle on round firing pins. He's very clear. That's why I said I have it here. I didn't say I shot with it. It's locked up with the rifle but beside it. I SHOOT a half round firing pin. I can put it back to correct in an instant. I knew that would draw fire...

Mine has the gas cylinder lock screw, not the relief valve so if I use a grenade launcher it would cycle the rod and possibly fracture it.
