This is why many argue the AR-15 is not a true direct impingement system. On most DI rifles the gas port dead ends on a cup on the bolt or carrier, such as on the French MAS-49.
Wait i always thaught that 1 or 2% of gases were transferred to the gas port before the rest of the gases went in the gas tube trying to expand after the bullet left which explains the 0% velocity loss between a gas operated gun and let's say a bolt action or recoil gun Can someone please explain?

Great as always!
Is the timing of everything based on some data or slow motion footage, something like that?

I was lucky enough to see the director's cut with the special sound effects. Much preferred over this version. Good work nonetheless.
