Wow. |

Quoted:
I used to have a full automatic lever gun but it cycled so slowly I got rid of it. Kind of on topic. J.M. Browning was at a range and saw the dust kicked up when firing a lever action rifle, and thought, 'what can I do with that wasted energy'? Within a few hours, he had assembled a funnel like contraption to capture the gas at muzzle, some linkage attaching the works to the lever. Was fulll auto after the first pull of the trigger! What a Genius. (From an old American Rifleman) |
