WELP! It is time for that yearly vacation we go on. Hope you guys enjoy the guns. Sadly we couldnt get the best video, after a recent incident at the range involving a serious injury of a range officer, shooter's world has gotten a bit more strict on its range. A lot of things like reloading and having more freedom in the booth had been restricted. Went on a lovely cruise to Mexico! Enjoy! 0:00...

Previously unlisted video, uploaded as proof of concept. Was learning how to put subtitles into a video when my first upload did NOT have them for some reason. Learned how to fix that probably, uploaded this video as unlisted to test it out. Switched over to public just to feed the algorithm lol.

Just bought one, thanks for the quick to it video!!
I have a G43 I’m restoring. I’m am in need of bolt housing. If anyone’s knows where I can find one please let me know.
I saw a walk through video of their store a few weeks ago. They made it look like the greatest thing since sliced bread. I've seen way too many videos showing how lousy they are to ever consider buying from them on line. MAAAAYBE if I can buy OTC, where I can inspect it personally,........!

😂😂😂RTI is awesome. I love these videos of your victims.
افضل سلاح في الحرب العالمية الثانية انا من عشاق هذا السلاح
Those are some nice looking lee enfields you have sitting in the back ground....im a big lee enfield guy. I love them....its my opinion thata good lee enfield is one of the greatest rifles ever made....i live garands too....ive i had to chose one over the other id have a nervous break down.
RTI has excelled at marketing and selling complete junk for handsome profits. That rifle is nothing more than a polished turd. And that’s their BEST quality! 😮
... how do the kids say it these days? "Based" LOL
RTI is garbage
Man this is wild. I too have had a spanish gun blow up on me haha just glad youre alright!
Damn, sorry about your rifle.
That bolt was totaly in battery and locked at least it appears? Wtf he cocked it took his time then fired this is not a slam fire ! Obviously his bolt sid not lock !!! That receiver is toast now for get fixing it this is very wierd
god damn german technology
I had a Belgian FN49 in .30-06 that started doubling on me. Turned out the firing pin was broken. It would fire normally and then go full auto with the firing pin front section flopping back and forth under inertia. Scary. Thanks for sharing this.
Had one once (before semi autos got verboten here in Aust) came with bayonet & tool/parts kit .. a work of art itself) .. superb metallurgy and accuracy with low recoil plus the round is flat shooting with unsurpassed bc & sd ..better by far than an SLR /M14 / garand etc .. believe me I've shot them all .
I’m glad you and your friend are okay Thanks for sharing. Hope you can get that beautiful rifle back to functional condition
I don think its worth trying to get that fixed unfortunately. the rear of the receiver being bowed out like that is not going to be easy to get back into spec and i'd be worried about structural damage to the metal of the receiver and bolt too.
I am glad your friend and you are not hurt. I had one Egyptian FM49, they are known for this issue, (the firing pin being stuck forward). My firing pin was wedged forward and caused a premature detonation out of battery. When this happened to me the breach block flew out of the rifle and tore my right arm as it flipped past my head. I had all the PPE on too. Your receiver is bent and likely cannot be fixed, I hope it can be fixed. These rifles started out having a one pcs firing pin, then migrated to a two pcs fining pin for this reason. The FN 49 is a good heavy rifle, but the two-piece firing pin with the safety slot cutout is a must. Keep us posted on the rifle's repair.
Jeez! sounds like you really got put through the ringer on yours. Good to hear you are alright. Yeah it definitely sounds like not enough people know about the dangers of the FN49. Its more than "yOu ShOulD ClEaN YoUr GuNs" --> its a bit of knowledge that is very niche.
Self loading Ammo 🤔
My rifle does not have a safety stop 🤯 I was told to never fire commercial ammo 😬 only mil spec ammo to avoid slam firing 🤔 I will have to look into changing my bolt and carrier
A bummer of an outcome! One every body can learn from tho! When purchasing a milsurp have it inspected by a professional gunsmith familiar with the gun before shooting. Glad everyone walked away in one piece!
My brother Pakistan ordnance Factory is amongst the top ones if you are a gun enthusiast then you know it that MP5 Germany is a failed one in comparison to POF made MP5
Nice
My sks has done that before get a 3 or 4 shot burst before it freed up.
What a shoddy rifle. Made in the USA!
... Riiigghhhtt
Maybe you can find someone on TH-cam that could use it as a video to fix and get it done for free or cheaper since it’s a more unusual rifle
Thanks for the good information
I had a new AMT Hardballer that fired a double then the firing pin fell out. The screw in the adjustable rear sight was to long and protruded into the firing pin area, the pin would get stuck then when the gun picked up the next round it loosened up but the retaining piece fell out and the pin fell out, what a mess, I got rid of that as well, went back to a standard M1911A1.
I once bought a semi-auto .22 Magnum, took it out to the range, second round blew the gun, blew the magazine out spit powder and my hand tingled for a bit as the stock actually broke. It went back to the gun shop and I got a full refund. After that I insured that I thoroughly cleaned and lubed every rifle I purchased before firing it, I had taken this one from the gun shop to the country to pop off a few rounds.
😂😂😂❤❤
Such a beautiful weapon. Glad yall are both ok. looks like some pretty serious damage to the receiver.....hope its able to be saved. some of us learned something on this. Always wanted a 49 but didn't have the money...even when they ran less than 400. regrets.
Great video! I love this rifle! I want to know everything about it. Thanks.
Sorry for your rifle! Years ago I had a similar issue with my wife's Glock 17: I just put in another magazine, pressed the silde release and it went off without me even touching the trigger. The firing pin was stuck forward because of brass shavings blocking it. This particular Glock has been producing al lot of brass shavings from the beginning when we bought it new. Fortunately, no damage occured besides a hole in the floor of the indoor range some meters in front of me.
Glad your ok man!
It didn't blow up ! The bolt hit the primer on the second cartridge while attempting to push it out of the magazine.
2:05 That look like 2 rounds was been fire. Out of battery fire on the second round.
I’m almost wondering if your firing pin spring may have been weak. This may have allowed the pin to move forward under inertia when the bolt lost velocity while stripping the next cartridge.
I am glad you and your partner were not seriously injured. In the past, whenever a new firearm came into my possession (new or used) I always broke it down, cleaned and examined all functioning parts, confirmed safety features worked properly, then did a primer only function test. A good swabbing of the bore ensured no grease or contaminants then single shot with live ammo. I have always worn safety glasses, even when shooting a .22 rimfire. Thank you for sharing this video.
absolutely - I even admitted that my complacency and trust landed us in this situation. I hate that I had to be reminded in such a painful way!
In handguns its called primer drag ...But it shows the same on some rifles ..its definitely showing that .. SKS rifles also suffer from this firing pin issue more ..that gun now most likes unsafe without some modifications to beef up the spots that bowed out ..
Only gun smith that i know thst can fix it, is mark novak, he has a you tube channel.
that guy could take a bucket of rust and turn it back into a Mauser...
@@boltforward3611 I would definitely try reaching out to him I just don't know what the cost would be or if it would be worth the cost to repair it.
Old guns and old cars are awesome. They’ve got that cool retro feel, and they’re not too hard to figure out beneath the hood!
i read the comments about the firing pin safety and for all i know thats right. what i see is, slowed way down, the fired case is barely out when the next exploded and it is not anywhere close to the chamber. im saying the projectile may have been in the chamber but none of the case was. the first round is only maybe an inch away from the bolt on its way out. the bolt has just begun to move forward so like you say, the primer was out and struck the case then the primer.
Glad this wasnt as bad as kentucky balistics
click bait sadge
Thanks. RTI is known for cheap rough condition guns. At least that is my impression. But as you say, advertising this as "completely refurbished" with that nasty bore and the rough bolt carrier group.... unacceptable.
