how hard can it be to tech someone this?

Tap, rack bang.

there aint no "smack the FA and then pull the charging handle"

Indeed. SPORTS (Slap, Pull, Observe, Release, Tap, Shoot). Live it, learn it, love it. I do not remember being taught to to rack the handle then randomly hit the FA like a monkey on speed.

I'm guessing this guy learned to shoot from the same late night movie.



You see the idea here is to prove how tough you are!

You know, when a hot case pops up in the air, hits you in the eye, then goes down your shirt.    You just grin and say.  "Yeah!  That's how I roll!"

I have been told that there are (minimal) differences between .223 Rem. and 5.56 Nato ammo, resulting in 5.56 Nato rounds possibly not chambering properly in a rifle chambered for .223 Rem. This is apparently the result of different production standards being used for .223 Rem. (Saami specifications) and 5.56 Nato (European specifications). Also, as a result of these differences in specifications 5.56 Nato may result in higher peak pressures.

Could this have been the cause of this failure?

5.56 is a hotter round and can cause a rupture in a .223 chamber.

.223 is safe to fire in a 5.56 chamber, but not the other way around.

If you look closer, the gun is not into battery. The round never fully chambered.

Exit question: name that gun!
