I hope to get an answer.. What is the benefit of the lock or the small latch inside the extension of the barrel? Why is it called a lock on which part it closes? Please answer.. Thank you
@@mars_man9971 Thank you, my friend. I am a 50 cal machine gun teacher in the army. I was looking for the answer.. So I will disassemble the machine gun and make sure your words are correct. If you have a more clear answer, help me to inform my brothers fighters
@@_abusadiq6262 If you are working on 50 cals, I am not sure if we are talking about the same part. The Browning .50s are very similar, but do have a number of changes
That you refer to yourself as a "50 cal machine gun teacher in the army" and don't understand how the barrel locks into place while being screwed in, and that is ESSENTIAL for proper Headspace, SCARES ME!!!!

I have watched your video several times and the only thing I really don't understand is how the empty case actually gets out of the chamber ,I didn't see an extractor hook to pull it out. Does it get out by gas pressure?
@@garylewis3641 My mistake, rereading, this, the round after being pulled out of the belt by the extractor, gets dropped into the T-slot on the face of the bolt. This is what grip the rim in rearward movement, pulling the round from the chamber
I don't know the extent of the exact similarities. I do know it has a different buffer system, and of course the modern browning has other changes as well.
Great video! One of the best videos describing the Browning M1919 operation mechanism.
Thanks!
Great video. I have been trying to understand how BMG' works and this helps tremendously! What an engineering masterpiece.

The Lock Spring? This prevents the barrel from rotating, which would cause it to go out of proper headspace during operation

The extractor has a bit of a hook that grabs it from the topside

@@mars_man9971 I understand it now, thanks!
Thanks!
yea who knew guns are nothing but a few springs and hunks of metal i could make one in my garage
Does the 50 cal work similarly to this?
I don't know the extent of the exact similarities. I do know it has a different buffer system, and of course the modern browning has other changes as well.
