Open. Hadn't thought about that. Was just thinking that in a complete cycle the basic moves are the same, but you are right that is different. Just watched Ian's video on it. The firing pin isn't fixed, it actually has a spring- but I guess that is to keep it to the rear until the bolt locks up and the carrier coming forward pushes the pin into the primer?
There definitely seems there is more mass than a AR BCG because of the carrier and the operating rod. (Is it still a rod when it is attached to the carrier?). That spring is looooong.
ETA: I don't know what is up with Youtube. It is all wonky on me, but I'm on a hotel wi-fi.

The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.
It's that simple.
