The purpose of this chapter is not to carry out an exhaustive course about gunsmith mechanics, but to present and explain the main mechanical principles frequently encountered on common weapons. This presentation will ensure a better understanding of the material and the attention to be paid to it.
Here we will detail more specifically the operation of self-loading weapons. On single-shot and manually repeating systems, the operating force used for re-loading is that of the user. However, many of the aspects detailed here are perfectly applicable for these weapons.
This presentation will focus on three main aspects of weapons: operating systems, firing systems and feeding systems.
