In all of the articles I have read on the subject, the answer was always 'Yes, pressure increases slightly'. Would the pressure increase to the point of peeling open a composite or fluid steel barrel? That was always the part where the author/researcher bowed out. I suppose it is a liability issue like some one asking on the forum if their gun is safe to shoot. We all agree that the person should have them looked at by a qualified individual. I suppose the guys writing short chamber articles don't want to be held liable. I would think that if pressure increases, the rearward thrust on the breechface would increase, along with forward thrust on the hook. I dunno. I will watch this thread, too. Cheers!
