That’s a cool video. I dig the burst mode description.

That’s a cool video. I dig the burst mode description.

That was the one I personally always wondered "How does that work" too myself.

That was one of the best videos that I have seen on how an AR functions.

I would like the producers to expand the video. They could show how the port cover is opened by the bolt. They could show how the flash hider works. They could show how to field strip and disassemble the entire rifle.

Here are the inner workings of the AR-15 semiautomatic rifle and why they're so powerful.

come on how is it more powerful than any other 223 firing firearms?

but it is a good explanation of how it can count out 3 rounds for burst mode it is very similar to a locker combination lock cam wheel

^^^ yep! fun to see how full and 3 burst work.

Video is partitioned and labeled on timeline for each segment...very useful. Haven't seen this used much before.

That is a good one. I have seen one with a better explanation of how the gas operation works. It boggled my mind on how the gas pushes forward to release pressure on the bolt face and then expands back to push the bcg back to eject the shell. Kind of a pogo stick effect.
