To be honest I have searched here and there and haven't been able to find exactly what I'm looking for. I basically want to learn the functions and mechanics on how an assault rifle, smg, or any semi/fully automatic weapon works. I've read quite a bit about them but for me it does no good unless I have a visual association. So if a diagram or a video could be presented for me it would be much easier and most appreciated. If anyone knows of anything like what I'm requesting please direct me to the right area. Thank you.

Thank you very much. Now does this cover every assault rifle type for the most part. By that I mean rifles like the AUG, FAMAS, TAR 21, g36, fn f2000, galil exc. Do they all use a similar system?

So I guess no one should ask any questions then on this forum?? Without questions be asked, most forums wouldn't exist..
So instead of telling him/her to use google, why don't you offer some real help..
The person would also learn more if more people were receptive to his/her question/s..

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
Assault rifles/weapons is a term that was used long ago for weapons to be used in an assault (usually fully auto), just like it sounds, however; bill clinton, the favorite of the commiedems, made up a new meaning, in 1994, if you are old enough will remember, the dems decided a list of "features" made something an "assault rifle" or not, flash hiders, gernade launchers, pistol grips, HIGH CAP MAGS, folding stocks etc.. If it "looked evil" to the dems, it was an assault rifle, the fact that it was a semi-auto, legally mfg, purchased and taxes had been paid on it, did not stop the dems. In all fairness to the dems, they (clinton and his commie buddies) had a bunch of Cops, from national police organizations standing with him, with their constant BS on how banning these guns would make us safe. In short if billie clinton and his buddies had named their new class of rifles "Sunflower rifles", you'd be asking "what is a sunflower rifle"-the same answer would apply-dem BS.

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
You spend a lot of time googling and find a lot of crap. To ask for the help of experienced users is what it is all about. It saves time and can often be better advice.
I have been shooting ARs for over 30 years, and I do not know all the details of exactly how they work. But I can shoot the hell out of targets. I do know enough about how they function to fix a jam, etc.
If he is asking for help, why not offer it. It seems that an armed society is a polite society, except on forums.
I not an expert gunsmith or the functioning of guns. Or I would help. I hope you find the answers you are looking for.

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
For semi's you're usually talking gas-operated vs. just plain recoil operated. One uses just plain inertia to cycle the action, the other uses gas bled off from a fired round to cycle the action.
Generally speaking a gas-operated will have less "felt" recoil than a recoil-operated system.
H&K type rifles like the PTR91 I *think* are recoil operated while an AK is gas-operated via piston, and an AR is gas-operated via direct impingement. I'm sure if you google around you will find parts diagrams for any of the above.
Is that what you are asking about?

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
Go to amazon.com or barnes and noble. Do a search on HATCHER'S NOTEBOOK, MG Julian S. Hatcher
Lots of so called assualt rifles out there, but in reality they are pretty much all the same when it comes to Operation Methods.
Hatcher's book though some say out dated, will pretty much give you what you are looking for as to how they work.
If you want to go a bit farther, do an advanced search and find Machine Gun's, 1916, same auther. Again, older book but actions havn't changed a whole lot.

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
when the trigger is pressed to the rear, a light comes on in the trigger housing which also serves as a bunkroom for a tiny elf. this awakens the angry elf and he instantaneously swings his tiny hammer at the rearward portin of the firing pin which in turn strikes the primer or the cartridge in the chamber. the primer then burns the arse of the little nelwin who lives in the cartridge making him shart his pants. this sharting builds gas pressure up inside the cartidge case and this pressure pushes the bullet out the barrel and spinning toward your target. some of his shart gases vent thru the gas port in the barrel releasing into the gas tube where a small gremlin lives. he smells the gas and runs toward the rear end of the gas tube where he bumps his little head on the piston which in turn cycles the bolt and loads the next nelwin inhabited cartridge, thus completing the firing circuit. this is the exact method that every gun youll ever encounter uses. hope this helps.

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
Just get ANY AR mentioned, but be sure to Add the Counter Sniper Double Reticle Scope to it. There was an overrun for the military and i here they are CHEAP right now, but the price will soon go up to SB and Premier prices SOON. That thing is Sweet. Why would you want one reticle, when you can use TWO?

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
I continue to be amazed at some of the comments by 'posters' that flame an innocent question. The only stupid question is the one that is not asked. I am a long time competative NMC service rigle shooter and have never found anything but positive answers on those website. I started with the M1, then the M1A and now the AR15. A friend of mine has got me interested in this discipline and recommended this as a good web site. At times I question that opinion. Everyone must start somewhere and most of us like to go to the source for knowledge. To flame a question or someone's name only shows your childish behavior. I like many are new to this game and hope to learn by reading the information posted here. I become reluctant to ask questions due to the method in which some 'posters' reply. This is the only forum I am a member of that I am often put off by certain responses. We were all newbies at some point in time. Try to be helpful and welcome new members. This should be a tight and helpful resource for all. Please keep your childish response to yourself - it only serves to make you look foolish not the person asking the question (get a life!). As shooters we need to welcome new members and keep the sport strong and growing. In my experience, competitive shooters are the most friendly and helpful lot out there. I fear in this game there may be too many Rambo whatabees that try to make themselves look better at the expense of others. Flame away if that serves your purpose!

A) You are, in fact, 12 years old, just got done playing a video game, and blundered in here to ask questions instead of using the internet to find your answers.
Kid, if you like shooting, good for you. Welcome to the ever addicting world of firearms. Fair warning: Most of the members here have a fair amount of shooting experience and don't like answering beginner questions. No offense intended. But there is so much information available, on this site and elsewhere on the internet, that asking us for the answer means you haven't bothered to do the most basic research. You didn't spend any time on it, so why should we? That said, any and all of us will go out of our way to help a beginning shooter. In fact, I'm on my way to teach a basic rifle/midrange class to a bunch of guys and gals that have never shot past 1-200 yards.
B) You are, in fact, a BATFE goon pretending to be a 12 year old, and you are in here to ask leading questions in hope that someone will link you to one of the many videos on YouTube and thus somehow commit a 'crime'. GFY. That was very lame. Soliciting information on full-auto conversions without proper stupid Federal paperwork B.S. is probably a 'crime' too, so go arrest yourself and leave us alone.

A) You are, in fact, 12 years old, just got done playing a video game, and blundered in here to ask questions instead of using the internet to find your answers.
Kid, if you like shooting, good for you. Welcome to the ever addicting world of firearms. Fair warning: Most of the members here have a fair amount of shooting experience and don't like answering beginner questions. No offense intended. But there is so much information available, on this site and elsewhere on the internet, that asking us for the answer means you haven't bothered to do the most basic research. You didn't spend any time on it, so why should we? That said, any and all of us will go out of our way to help a beginning shooter. In fact, I'm on my way to teach a basic rifle/midrange class to a bunch of guys and gals that have never shot past 1-200 yards.
B) You are, in fact, a BATFE goon pretending to be a 12 year old, and you are in here to ask leading questions in hope that someone will link you to one of the many videos on YouTube and thus somehow commit a 'crime'. GFY. That was very lame. Soliciting information on full-auto conversions without proper stupid Federal paperwork B.S. is probably a 'crime' too, so go arrest yourself and leave us alone.

MST123: It was said to me and now ill say it to you.. You have to have thick skin if your going to be on this forum. A lot of us on here are current prior or retired military, talking a little shit here and there to new guys or stupid questions is second nature. Get over it and continue on.

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
Sandrat,
I certainly understand your point and it is well taken. I have thick skin so the comments do not bother me. If I don't like a question, I choose not to respond - but that is just me. I have shot competitively for most of my life and have noted that there are always individuals in the game that you would prefer not to be there. This is usually a result of attitude more than lack of experience. Have even run across some militia types that you learn to stay clear of due to their very radical outlook. However as I get older, I realize that I am no better than most. Due to a serious motorcycle accident (you have to be tough when your dumb)I have been rehabilitating for the last 8 months. I can walk now but it will be a while before I can get into this game. It appears exciting and different from shooting round black targets with scoring rings. Again after rereading the initial post, I can understand the questions that might go thru one's mind. I enjoy the majority of the information and certainly will continue to learn the sport.

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
Hey Ninja I've read some of your past posts and i have got to ask. What exactly are you going for in firearms? Do you want to have something that looks cool with a ton of bell and whistles. Do you want to seem cool to other people online when you say u are gonna do certain stuff? Or do you actually want to learn something about firearms that could possibly keep you from doing something retarded?
I know i might sound a little mean but dude not much of the things you say make sense and logic is out the window in almost every post. Building a precision rifle or other is not easy and takes a long time to do. Its no game and the consequences are serious.

Re: I have a question concerning assault rifles?
Yeah. I think mst is right. We don't have to publish to the world every thought we have about a poster. PM the guy maybe? But not out front and center. And why even post at all? Why not just keep moving on to an interesting topic?
In fact, show what you know about the topic and English grammar by explaining the answer.
