Edit (2/12/14): Notice!!/Product Safety Recall :P
--
Last night I broke the front hook, because I tilted the rifle too far outwards while removing to show a friend. 50% infill printed with the hook pointed up is NOT enough plastic! If used gently it can still work with the hook pointed up, but I recommend printing with supports, lying flat on the table so the layers are mostly identical, and in ABS so supports can be easily removed for maximum strength. For those interested in materials science engineering (I almost did a minor) or the study of composites, this illustrates what a difference grain direction makes for anisotropic materials.
Fortunately I heard a crack of layer delamination just before failure and immediately moved my hand on the rear of the rifle upwards, so when it broke the front swung down barely missing the matching wooden nightstand! Phew! That was close, good thing I keep my display rifles unloaded and without the bayonet attached despite the temptation
