Basically a semi-automatic gun uses the thrust or "kick" from the bullet to cock the gun again so you can just pull the trigger again without having to manually pull back the hammer, but you still have to pull the trigger each time, unlike automatic weapons that keep firing so long as the trigger is pulled down. | ||

Modern rifles are operated by gas-loading systems. You're right about the semi-automatic description though. Oh, and Hittegods links says it all, just browse through the site. | ||

Its for a paper (class is Honors Workshop). Have to look at an issue from three diverse perspectives (history/psych/engineering) and the topic I chose is "Child Soldiers and Sierra Leone." | ||

dk u prob already know then of Ismael Beah and his book but just in case ~ here is a short interview in mp3 format, a youtube clip and some interesting discussions http://www.radioopensource.org/ishmael-beah-boy-soldier/ it might help u with the psych part to hear him tell his own story if u don't have time to read his book (great, autobiographical: A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier) (he is in great part the guy who brought awareness to this horrible situation) hope it helps ~ | ||

A semi-automatic rifle will fire one shot per trigger pull. So, if you pull the trigger once, it'll shoot one round. If you pull the trigger and do not release it, it will still only fire one round. A fully-automatic rifle will continually fire rounds until the trigger is released. When you pull the trigger, the firing of the first round and ejection of that round's cartridge will then use that force to load the next round. In an automatic rifle, the hammer will also be cocked again so that the next shot will fire. In a semi-automatic rifle, that won't happen. Instead, the hammer will just remain in its position of contact with a cartridge. Imagine this in your head: - You slowly pull the trigger back, and the hammer moves backwards - You hit the "breaking point," the hammer is released, and the round is fired - The cartridge is ejected, and the next round is loaded, and if the weapon is fully-automatic, the hammer will also be cocked again Do you want a more technical explanation? | ||
