How does a standard assault rifle work (AKA AK-47, M16, G36)?

first of all, an "assault rifle" is a fully automatic rifle. You cannot build one legally, and if you do, and get caught, you will do federal time in a federal prison.

second. The AK47, M16, G36 all use different methods. To understand how they would requires training as a gunsmith or a military armorer. The AK47 is the simplest.

You ask what attack rifle then end your question with AR??? The M16 and AK47 are attack rifles.... An AR15 isn't..... Its as in case you asked us no count if we adore Buick or Mercury then ask us what Honda we desire??? anyhow i think of i'm getting the belief.... An AR15 is extra precise hands down. And reckoning on the type or barrel its much extra precise than any AK would desire to wish to be... of direction you cant get a three around burst AR15. - nicely a minimum of no longer with out a extensive workplace work situation and that's even in case your state helps it.... Why no longer get them the two?? I certainly have 4 AR15's and a pair of AK editions... even nevertheless the AR15 is extra precise and outfitted extra suitable the AK is exciting to shoot... the two a style of rifles use affordable ammo so because it particularly is a huge plus.... precise??? I merely shoot at 12 or 15 inch metallic plates and silhouette objectives and the two rifle's are a variety of of precise for that to seventy 5 and a hundred yards....... taking pictures little a million inch holes in paper is lame -- besides that isn't any longer what the two rifle became into designed to do....

You need to be a fair machinist to make any type of gun from scratch. You should buy a cheap SKS and play with that then check out Shotgun news for resource to make your own guns from kits. I would suggest an AR15 or FNFAL. Check out bushmaster fire arms, and wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SKS_Carbine

Look at the source below

cannot make one your self unless you have a machine shop.

those weapons all fire from the "open bolt" position, has a spring loaded recoil unit and uses the energy of the round to reload the next round through mechanical operations.

They are an automatic barrel system usually with a cartridge. That's all I know dude I'm pretty sure I'm right because I took a hunters ed class.

you wont be able to pull the trigger when you blow ya fingers and face off trying to build one... stick to watching rambo!
