Any semi auto rifle can slam fire if a cartridge is dropped loose into the chamber and the bolt allowed to slam it down.

Always load cartridges into the chamber from a magazine and this possibility is greatly reduced.

G3 rifles have been tested by dropping loaded versions forty feet onto concrete pads without inducing an accidental bang.,

Here's mine. I really enjoy shooting it.

Hauptman, the nature of the locking system won't accommodate a bolt hold open device.

HK managed it on the MP5/10. There's no reason why they couldn't have incorporated one in the design, they simply didn't.

Kalashnikov could have incorporated a bolt hold open device on the AK series rifles too and didn't.
I guess Germans and Russians aren't so dumb that they need a bolt hold open device to let them know the weapon is out of bullets.

The AK and SKS are not battle rifles -- they are semiauto assault rifles.

Seriously???

An assault rifle is a selective fire rifle or carbine firing ammunition with muzzle energies intermediate between those typical of pistol and battle rifle ammunition. ...

(meaning it's capable of fully automatic fire)

I think it's safe to say there are very few if any owners of an assault rifle on this board. Let's not make the same mistake the media does, it's for our own good.

You'd probably be shocked by how many people on this board own true assault rifles and other NFA items.
