Sorry to report guys that my semi-auto cannon did not survive it's very first test shot. I never got around to setting up the feed chute, extractor and ejector pin but by using a gift certificate I was able to pick up enough air couplings at Sears so I could properly repair the pressure chamber (which BTW I stole off of the Tiger's cannon) and hook it up to my air compressor. I've got a few pictures posted over on the Armored Fist News page. I'm pretty sure that the current damage is repairable but for the time being it's back on the shelf.
