CHAPTER 4STOPPAGES AND IMMEDIATE ACTION

22. s toppagesa.A stoppage is any unint ent iona l inter ru ption

in th e cycle of opera tion. The stoppage ma y beoawed by impr oper fun ctioning of th e rifle orfaulty ammunition.

6. Type% of stoppages.(1) Xq%v. A misfire is a failur e to fire. Amisfire itself is not da ngerous, but sinceit cannot be immedia.tely distinguishedfmm a delay in the functioning of thefirin g mechan ism, or from a ha ng&, itshould be considered as a possible delayin firing u nt il this possibility ha s beenelimina ted. A delay in th e functionin gof the Cring mechanism could result fromthe preaenee of foreign mat ter such assand , grit, oil an d grease. These mightcrests B part ial m echan ical rast rsintwhich, a fter some delay, is overcome bycont inued force app lied by th e sprin g,and the firing pin then striking the

No roun d should be left in &hotweapon any longer than necessary becauseof th e possibility of B cookoff.HCWVJ~~W. ha ngfire is B delay in thefunctioning of a propelling char ge at th etime of firing. The am ount of delay isunpredictable. A hangfire cannot be dis-tingu ished iimnediata ly from a misllm.Cookoff. A cookoff is th e funct ioning ofa chambered round due to the heat of theweapon. If the prim er or propellingcha rge sh ould cookoff, th e pr ojectile willbe propelled from th e weapon with nor-ma l velocity even th ough no at tempt wasmade to fire the primer by actuating the^ . . .tiring mechanism.

23. hmdlab AdlonImm ediate action i8 th e un hmit at ing applicstiouof a p&able rem edy to redu ce a stoppage withoutinvestigating th e cause. Imm ediate action istau ght in two phaam .

a. The first phase is ta ught aa L drill so that theriflema n learu s to perform it quickly an d instinc-tively with out th ought as to th e cause of th e stop-page. To apply th e fir& pha se, with the righthan d, palm up, pull the operating rod handle allthe way to the rear. Release it, aim and attemptto Iire. The palm is up to avoid injury to th eha nd in event of B cc&off or ha ngfire (fig. 39).

b. If t he fmst pha se of immediate action fails t ow&we a stoppage, th e second pha se of imm ediateaction is applied. The five key words used to helpremember the steps iu the second phase 8x-e:TAKE, PULL, LOOK, LOCATE, an d RE -DUCE.

(1) TAKE th e rifle from th e shoulder.(2) P ULL th e opera ting red ha udle slowlyto the rear.

(3) LOOK in th e receiver.(4) LOCATE th e s%page by observing, aa

th e opera ting rod handle is pulled to th erear , what is in the cham ber, and whathas been ejected.

(5) REDUCE th e stoppage and cont inue tofire.

c. Ha ugfra llnd mislires will occur ra rely.Normally, th e firer will instin ctively apply bu-mediate action which in most instances Feducesth e stoppage even when causa d by a ha ng&-e ormisfire.

d. The normal cause of a misfire is faulty am-munition. Ther efore+ fulth er use of ammu nitionfrom tha t lot should be suspended a nd report ed t omaintenance for disposition.

(8) DryclRuling solventsused for cleaningrifles which are coated with greaw, oil,or wrroeion-preventive compoumls.

(4) Carbon-removing compound (PClll-A)is need on stubborn carbon deposits bysoaking and brushing. This prcuxamust be followed by the U~Bof dryclean-ing solvent.b. Zub-.

(1) Lubricating oil, genersl pnrpcq is usedfor lubricating the rifle at normal tam-peiatules (PL special).

(2) Lubricating oil, weapons (LAW) is wedfor low tamperatures (below 00).

(3) OE 10 engine oil msy be used &s a fieldexpedient under combat conditions whenthe oils prescribed in (1) and (2) abovecannot be obtained. However, as soon espossible the weapon should be cleaned andlubricated with the proper, authorizedlubricants.(4) Rif le grease should be applied to thoeeworkii surfaces shown in figure 40.

c. Eqwipnmt.(1) A complets set of maintanance equip-ment (fig. 41) is stored in the stock of theMl4 rifle and consists of a-(a) Combination tool.(b) Chamber cleaning brush*(c) Plastic case lubricant.(d) Small arms cleaning rod case.(e) Small *nns cleaniGg rod section (4each).

(f) Cleaning patch holder.(g) Small erms bore cleaning brush.(2) The combination tool can be used aa eitherB 20 offset screwdriver or as a gas plugwrench (figs. 42 and 43).(a) The handle of the combination tool isalso used as the cleaning rod handle.To do this, allow the cleaning rod ex-

tension of the tool to fall from the toolhandle 80 that it hangs perpendicular.


5/23

Assemble the four sections of the clean-ing rod and SCIWV nto the threadedhole in the cleaning rod extension.Either the bore brush or the cleaningpatch holder may be attached to the endof the cleaning rod.(6) The plastic lubricant csse (fig. 44) isclosed with B ecrew cap which haa astem (applicator) attached that is usedto apply oil drop by drop on one end.The csp is fitted with a gasket to pmvent oil leakage. The other end hasanother cwwv cap and contains riflegreasa.

26. Cleaning the RMaa. Procedwea for CIeaniqy Clumber amd Bore.The rifle must be cleaned after it has been firedbecause firing deposits primer fouling, powderashes, carbon and metal fouling. The ammuni-tion has B noncorrcxsive primer which makes clean-ing easier, but not lass important. The primerstil l leaves B deposit that may collect moisture and

promote rust if it i s not removed. The proceduresfor cleaning the chamber and baa are described infigures 45 and 46. These pro&urea wil l insurethat the bore is cleaned evenly and will preventforeign matter from being pushed into the receiverfrom the bore. Upon completion of firing, borecleaner should be applied for ease of furthercleaning.

b. Gas OyCw!er Plug. Pour B small quantityof bore cleaner in the plug, insert and rotate thebore cleaning brush. Remove the brush, cleansnd dry the plug with patches.c. Gas Cylinder. Install the patch holder on Bsection of the cleaning rod. Put two patchas inthe holder, moisten them with bore cleaner andswab the cylinder bora Dry the oylinder borewith o.?eanpatcha Use m abm&ives in. c2eancingthe oyzina?er and do not ail the ilzterior mrfmee.d.

Wipe the piston dry, hut do not ~2.The gas system incorporates * self-clesning s=ec-tion and functions within very close tolerances.A piston does not have to be shiny to functionproperly. Do not use abkwea to ckan the piston.e. Face of the Bolt. Clean the face of the boltwith B patch and bore cleaner, paying particularattention to its inside edgw. Remove the borecleaner with dry patches and oil the part lightly.f. Spindle Valve. Depress the valve and rotatiit several times after each days firing. Do not dis-llssemble it.

g. Maga.&w. Inspect the interior of the maga-eine by depressing the follower with the thumb.If the interior is dirty, di saasemble the magazineand clean it, then lightly oil the component parts.

Otherwise, merely wipe the magazine assemblyclean and dry, then oil it.h. &tabdtiw 88emMy. The stabilizer as&?m-bly should be removed and cleaned with L stif fbrush to remove all carbon or other particles whichmay block thegas ports.i. All Other Parts. Use a dry cloth to removeall dirt or sand from other parts and exterior sw-facea. Apply B light coat of oil to the metal partsand rob TQZDinseed oil into the wooden parts.Care must be taken to prevent linseed oil from get-

ting on metal pa&s.j . After Firhg. Th e rifle m ust b&oroughlycleaned no later than the evening of the day it isfired. For three consecutive days thereafter, checkfor evidence of fouling by running a clean patchthrough the bore and inspecting i t. The boreshonld be lightly oiled after each inspection.27. Nom101 Maintenance

a. The rifle should be inspected daily, when inuse, for evidence of wet and general ~ppearanee.A l ight coat of oi l should be maintained on allmetal part+ except the gas piston, interior of thegas cylinder, and the gas plug.b. The daily inspection should also reveal anydefects such 85 burred, worn or cracked parts.Def ects should be reported to the armorer for car-&ion.

CHAPTER 6AMMUNITION

29. GeneralThe Ml4 rifle fires several types of amm unit ion.

The rifleman should be able to recognize them andknow which type is best for csrta iu ta rgets. Heshould also know how to care for the ammunition.

a. Figure 48 shows th e parts of a typical car-tridge.b. The term bullet re fers only to a sma ll arm spr ojectile; th e ter m ball was originally used todescribe the ball-shaped bulletof very early smallar ms amm un ition. The ter m ball am mu nitionnow refers to a cartr idge with a general pur posesolid corn bullet int ended for um against person-nel and material targets.30. Descr ip t ion
