This was what I thought about this chamber shield concept too after initially reading it's description. I would fear that there would always be some amount of gap in the shield in front of each chamber to cause gases to be "jetted" into the loaded chamber.
I'm not sure whether that would occur or not, but the plastic shield would burn away from gas cutting and cause the gap to grow larger and less effective.
But it's still a very interesting concept if there was some way to prove that it could work.
