    One difference I (think) I can see is that you left no room for a fillet in your weld.

    I make my lugs so the barrel sits on top of them vs down inside of them, get a stronger weld that way. Like post #4 in this thread.

    I machine “blanks” that don’t have the pivot hole in them like the last one I welded but haven’t finished in the attached photo, I ream it after welding, cut the extractor, drill and tap and your ready to go.

    Bullberry, sells the bots and extractors.
    No need of a fillet, straight forward tig fuse there - it ain't coming off.
