[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Who says you can't bump-fire an AR?

Posted: 9/14/2003 1:20:57 AM EDT

I have read a few posts about bump-firing, and a few people are of the opinion that an AR can't be bump-fired very well due to the light recoil. Well, today at the range I dumped a few mags of XM193 and Q3131A using the bump fire method. It was AWESOME! The XM193 did a little better, but both worked fine. What a kick!

I will admit that my AK still tops my AR when it comes to ease of bump-firing.

DVDTracker and rickinvegas have video footage on that thread of them bump firing their AR's.

Ever try the Tac Trigger device?

I recently finished rebuilding my pre-ban Essential Arms with a Bushy 16" light weight barrel & Synthetic collapsible stock. I don't know the weight of it but it is nice & light & bumps very nicely.

The lighter the AR, the faster it bumps.

My mini 30 bump fires well but never tried with my AR.
