This is why manually operated battle and dangerous game rifles have been made with control round feeding.

Besides it's good machinery. If you can operate a Bridgeport or a South Bend you will know what I mean. If you don't know what a "Bridgeport" or "South Bend" is then you may not.

so, how did you get the bolt open without ejecting the first round? musta really had to work at that one.

Guns don't kill people, drivers with cell phones kill people.
