Face the target, move the selector lever from SAFE to FIRE and bring
your weapon up to firing position.
Aim your weapon at the target and squeeze the trigger.
Squeezing the trigger releases the hammer, allowing it to impact the
firing pin, which strikes the primer in the round.
The primer ignites the propellant in the round.
Gas from the burning propellant pushes the projectile (bullet) along the
barrel of the weapon.
The rifling in the barrel causes the projectile to rotate, which provides
stability during flight to the target.
When the round reaches the approximate end of the barrel, expanding
gases from burning propellant pass out through the gas port and into
the gas tube. Gas goes into the bolt carrier assembly, ejects the old car-
tridge, and chambers a new round.
