This might be a really dumb question, so excuse me please.
My question is this...
When I put dummy rounds into my M1A magazine, insert the mag, and then pull the op rod back to cycle the round, they do not eject. Since I am used to seeing unfired rounds eject from my auto handguns, i was wondering why the rifle doesn't cause them to fly out when I bring the op rod back.
I carefully tried it with a live round, and the round chambered perfectly, but did not eject either.
Could it be that it requires the pressure of a live round, or am i just missing something here?
Thanks for your thoughts.
