    That button is to slam the bolt forward after it locks back from the last round. After your last round, the bolt will lock back. Load another mag, press that button and it will chamber another round so you can get back in the fight. 👍

    I know I'm a bit late, but for anyone watching this that is thinking of getting this gun, I 100% recommend it. Bought it on my 18th birthday and it's been going strong for 6 months now. Easy to break down, clean, and upgrade parts just as I would expect from any AR15. The only jam I have had with this gun is when I forgot to oil the bolt carrier group after wiping it dry (completely my mistake.) Otherwise, it has run absolutely flawlessly! I have upgraded the pistol grip, stock, and handguard so far! Best budget rifle that will still get you all the functionality of a higher end rifle.

    On a serious note I just have to say always remember to keep your finger off of the trigger until you are pointed down range and ready to fire. I'm not passing judgment but as a member of the firearm community we all have to have each other's backs for safety. Thank you for your review and I appreciate what you do on your Channel.

      Also just checking the chamber for a bullet is not the way to be safe, some will shoot at a target to be sure, even once it’s checked put it back on the safety position and not the fire position especially if you keep your finger on the trigger, only have your finger on the trigger unless your ready to fire.

    When you chamber a round pull that charging handle with more authority. Pull it all the way back let it go. You shouldn't have to use that forward assist every time. I just put together a new palmetto state Armory AR and I'm just excited as you are.

    • @trevorjameson3213
      @trevorjameson3213 Рік тому +1

      That is exactly why accidents continue to happen. People are too lazy to learn the weapon before using it. Not only should they read the manual AND learn each function of their weapon, but also learn the proper terminology of every part of it. Of course first and foremost, they should learn proper gun safety and handling, before doing anything at all.

    The little button on the left side of the rifle is known as a beaver tail in the military. As the previous comment said it is a bolt carrier release to chamber a fresh round once the mag is empty.

  • @George-nn8ui
    @George-nn8ui 2 роки тому +2

    Button is the charging for bolt catch to load your first round into the chamber., it’s a good practice to use your safety button before you check your chamber. And then keep your safety on till you are ready to fire. So it goes, aim, take safety off, then fire, once done shooting, press safety back on.

      While you’re correct, my first AR was an M16. Back in the 70s, they didn’t really teach us that in Basic. They did have us on the range in a ton of crap weather, though. 😃

  • @JohnHilman1968

    You aren't going to find an AR chambered in .223 Rem. You can find em in .223 wylde which also runs 5.56.
    You cannot run the gun with the dust cover closed
    My first AR was also a M&P sport 2. It is a good basic rifle. It is definitely over-gassed. But that will make it reliable. I chose to slow my action down a bit and it runs much smoother. H2 buffer. M16 bolt carrier for the added weight and it still runs everything I feed it but a much smoother running gun.
    I added a Hogue over-mold grip and stock and that creepy gritty mil-spec trigger was replaced with a rise armament single rage duty trigger.
    Oh and you can kill the receiver rattle with some jp oversized pivot and takedown pins
    My M&P sport 2 has the feel of a rifle costing 2x as much

    223 Wylde... you can fire 556. Oh, I'm assuming you're a new shooter, based on, product knowledge, stance, and poor safety practices. Keep learning.
