Experimental Reising 7.62mm Full-Auto Battle Rifle

This video explores an experimental Reising 7.62mm full-auto battle rifle developed in the late 1950s or early 1960s by Eugene Reising. The design aimed to adapt his submachine gun mechanisms to a locked-breech military rifle, incorporating an M14 gas piston and a fully locked bolt. It was assembled into an H&R .22 caliber M14 simulator stock, also a Reising design. While the exact reasons for its lack of success are unknown, the video delves into this unique and ultimately unsuccessful firearm prototype.
