some more progress. The barrel block has now been welded in. This gun will need to be registered over the next few days as I'm nearly ready to weld the mag housing (the legal "receiver") into a completed unit.

Here are the barrel block welds. Two are oxy-acetylene plug welds, while the thirs is a o/a notch weld. The notch weld was done instead of the plug weld so that the pin slot would not deform. Plug welds are easier to do with a MIG, but alas, I have neither a MIG welder nor the experience to use it well
