I knew that the operating rod bounced back on closure but did not realize that it was that much. On the AR you can see that it uses the gas in receiver system by the amount it exhausts. Thanks for posting this Harry

Wonder whether this bounce is related to the infamous 7th round stoppage which bedeviled the early development of the Garand.
