PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
GENERAL
The 7.62 x 51 mm G-3 rifle:
1. Is gas-operated.
2. Fires in either fully automatic (AUTO) or semi-automatic (SEMI) mode.
3. Has positive locking of the bolt. The firing pin is part of the bolt carrier assembly and cannot strike the
primer until the bolt head is fully locked.
CYCLE OF OPERATION
The cycle of operation is similar in all small arms. Knowledge of what happens during the cycle of operation
will help both the operator and the maintainer understand the cause of and remedy for various stoppages.
NOTE
The cycle of operation begins at any of the following eight steps.
1. Eight Steps. The cycle of operation contains eight steps:
a. Feeding
b. Chambering
c. Locking
d. Firing
e. Unlocking
f. Extracting
g. Ejecting
h. Cocking
2. Description of Eight Steps. The eight steps that make up the cycle of operation are explained below,
along with a brief description of what occurs inside the rifle during each step. Assume that a full
magazine is loaded in the weapon and the bolt carrier group is to the rear.
a. Feeding. The force of the recoil spring pushes the bolt forward, toward the barrel extension, stripping
a cartridge from the magazine and loading it into the chamber.
b. Chambering. Chambering is completed when the cartridge is fully seated in the chamber and the
extractor is engaged in the extraction groove at the base of the cartridge.
c. Locking. The weapon relies on a delayed roller-locked bolt system. During chambering the bolt head
enters the barrel extension and its forward movement is stopped. The bolt carrier continues forward,
pushing the locking piece into the bolt head. The angled shoulders of the locking piece force the
locking rollers into the contours of the barrel extension, to lock the weapon. The firing pin is now in
position behind the cartridge for firing.
0003 00-1
TM 8370-50117-IN/20 0003 00
d. Firing. When the trigger pivots on its axle, the back of the sear rises, causing the front of the sear to
lower. This action removes the sear from the notch in the hammer, causing the hammer to pivot on its
axle. As a result of spring tension, the hammer is allowed to strike the firing pin and ignite the primer
of the cartridge.
e. Unlocking. When the cartridge is fired, gas pressure exerts a thrust on the bolt carrier. The bolt
carrier carries the bolt to the rear to unseat and compress the locking rollers. The balanced angular
ratio of the locking piece and the locking rollers causes a delayed recoil movement of the bolt head,
thus guaranteeing that the bolt head keeps the barrel locked until the bullet has left the muzzle. The
bolt carrier continues rearward until it contacts the face of the hammer, forcing the hammer to cock
and the recoil spring to be compressed.
f. Extracting. With the extractor crimped around the extracting groove on the cartridge case, the
rearward movement of the bolt carrier allows the empty cartridge to be removed from the barrel
extension during the recoil and compression of the locking rollers.
g. Ejecting. As the bolt carrier recoils to the rear, it rides over the rear of the ejector, raising the front of
the ejector into the path of the cartridge case, expelling it from the weapon.
h. Cocking. As the bolt carrier recoils to the rear, it rides over the hammer, forcing it back and down,
causing the hammer to engage the sear.
AUTOMATIC
1. Cycle of Operation. The cycle of operation is similar to semi-automatic operation, with some minor
differences in operation due to differences in internal fire control components. Knowledge of what
happens during the cycle of operation will help the operator understand both the cause of and remedy for
various stoppages.
2. Eight Steps. The automatic cycle of operation contains the same fundamental eight steps as the
semi-automatic.
3. Description. With the safety selector lever in the AUTO position, the weapon will fire repeatedly as long
as the trigger is held or until the magazine empties. This is accomplished through the use of a sear that
momentarily holds the hammer rearward until the bolt has fed, chambered, and locked on the next round.
a. The trigger is pulled and held, releasing the hammer, which fires the first round.
b. As the bolt moves rearward, the hammer is forced to the rear and is caught by the sear.
c. As the bolt returns to the locked position, the sear releases the hammer and the next round is fired.
d. The sequence repeats as long as the trigger is held rearward or the magazine empties.
e. The cycle of operation will stop when the trigger is released and the hammer is caught by the sear.
