Untitled Slide

  • A user pulls a bolt assembly back using a lever to engage a "sear"
  • The firearm loads a fresh round inti the chamber
  • A round is fired with a firing pin or striker, which strikes the primer and
  • Ignites explosive powder inside the bullet
  • The empty casing is ejected out of the gun as the bolt reloads a fresh bullet

Very effective
THE MACHINE GUN ALLOWED ONE PERSON TO SHOOT MANY TIMES AT MANY PEOPLE

THE MACHINE GUN IS STILL AROUND TODAY
