...The semi/full selector switch on a Kalashnikov is your finger...
For an experienced shooter. Otherwise, it’s halfway or all the way down on the safety lever.
Maybe. The video may have been edited to cut out the part where the camera or the photog's body hits the floor. She swept the muzzle directly at the lens while the AK was cycling in full-auto; it's highly improbably that he didn't at least get a graze.
My caption is therefore: "Who else knows how to work this camera?"
You are right. It may be one of variants, but it definitely a Kalashnikov at it’s core.
Also with any luck, the kid shot the person standing behind them.
“Lucky it wasn’t on full auto.”
They only have two settings - safe or auto.
Like I’ve always said when hunting big game - pulling the trigger is the easy part. This is why little girls with minimal upper body strength should not be allowed to play with full-auto weapons.
That balloon isn’t getting away.
However they did not understand the physics of the rifle's recoil.
It was obvious that the recoiled of the rifle was going to spin the girl and the MUZZLE of the rifle to the girls right because she was holding the rifle with the stock under her arm and low.
Normally recoil of a rifle will force the barrel up when a person holds a rifle correctly but this girl was too small to hold the rifle correctly and consequently it spun her to the right and she swept the muzzle over the camera man.
