@kleshnikov47 Well, yes and no. An open bolt is a perfect SMG and belt-fed MG system because it allows for rapid heat dispersion, but it has to be engineered against this kinda failure. I own/have owned a Colt 1928A1 and Uzi A,B, mini, and micros, as well as a Rock Island M60. A good example is the SMG Uzi's three tiered safety system (two-eared sear, ratcheting top cover, and grip safety that locks the bolt up) that allows all the pro's of the open bolt, but none of the M1928A1's failures!
@Mick762 Thats why i said some of the time. Advances in the technology over the years have improved these safety mechanisms built into open bolt designs. The open bolt design has its pros and cons, like anything.
@SpeedTrapAhead I know what you are saying, what I mean was that the siteeeation was dealt with and in the end not a big deal, there are other potential outcomes that could have been a very big deal.
Nice, way to hang on!
