This video explores the concept of an 'operational envelope' in firearms, using carrier speed and ejection patterns as diagnostic tools. Co-owner Mike Mihalski emphasizes that firearms are not static, explaining how factors like suppressor use and heat build-up affect performance. The video advocates for a gas and buffer system that creates a forgiving rifle capable of handling a wide range of variables, ideal for production work rifles designed to perform reliably under adverse conditions, both suppressed and unsuppressed. It differentiates this approach from building dedicated suppressed rifles, highlighting the flexibility of their universal method.
This video from SOLGW delves into the "A5 system," explaining what it is and the rationale behind its use. The core philosophy presented is that instead of extreme fine-tuning for a narrow operational window, the goal is to create a more forgiving and versatile rifle with a wider operational envelope. This approach is argued to incrementally improve the platform's performance, making it a more reliable "fighting gun."
