I always made a jig to hold the gun, then a long string from behind cover.

Then inspect the gun to see if there was any damage or deformation.

I like your suggestion better. I like my hands about as much as any of my body parts.

Most kids in 6th grade knew how to make a zip gun out of a car antenna, when I was young. Ready to fire .22, shorts were preferred, but would also chamber LR.

Remember old cameras that had the air bulb actuator? That’s how to do it.

What are you guys building that might explode? Well designed weapons have built in safety features. Headspace gauges allow you check if you’re within those safe tolerances.
