Bump Firing...Anyone?

Has anyone tried bump firing before? My buddy told me to look it up on YouTube so I did...we went out shooting yesterday and I tried it for the first time with my SKS. Its hard a **** but its sick as hell when you actually get it to work.

Just wondering if anyone on here has ever played around with it?

Re: Bump Firing...Anyone?

I can empty a 90 rd drum on a Mak 90 in no time, I always called it slam firing. I assume you mean using the recoil and slight forward pressure on the forend, along with a stiff trigger finger to achieve a simulated full auto.

Trust me with 90 rds, after about 30 or so I can aim OK! Because it wastes at least 10 to 15 at first just getting it to go solid!
Fun as hell, and had the sherriff freaking out when he pulls up on a machine gun call.
He couldn't believe that we were doing that with a semi-auto, he insisted the gun had been tampered with, and I was afraid he was going to try and take it. He wouldn't even shoot it!! Funny ****, even back then when I first tried it, which was almost 12 years ago now!

In other words, no/little recoil=no bump fire.

Re: Bump Firing...Anyone?

Works well with an sks, but mine has a synthetic folding stock so it is lighter than normal

Re: Bump Firing...Anyone?

Its real easy on my AR-15 as well. Just have to have a stiff finger and lock your arms. Was pretty easy. But as stated I can not hit anything while doing, but its pretty nice to show though.

Re: Bump Firing...Anyone?

Search for "poor man's machinegun" on youtube. It's bumpfiring, but with a rubberband wrapped around the front of the trigger guard to behind the trigger. It helps reset the trigger, making it much easier to bumpfire.

Also, a vertical forward grip helps if you're shooting an AK or AR.

It helps to oil the trigger group, if your going for mag dumps. Sewing machine oil seems to work the best. Something with a low viscosity.

I had a preban Norinco AK with underfolding stock, that almost got me thrown in jail. Bumpfiring it at a public range, ATF was out there in no time looking for my "machine gun". Be careful where you do it.

It was fun to do when 1k rounds of 7.62*39 was $80. Now its almost triple that. I havent bumpfired a rifle since 2004. I bumped my friends glock 17 before, you just gotta do it right.

Indeed that is the best way.... however bump firing is pretty gay. Atleast with the rubber band set up you can aim.

and it doesn't matter what caliber you do it with. .223 is perfect though plenty of blowback for the bolt, yet low recoil for the user.

once again my disclaimer: bump firing is gay if you do it more than a handful of times lol

Its possible with .223. I saw someone do it with a Mini-14.

shoot it more clean it more, I bought one and it would not fire three shots, the more i shot it the better it got, now it is not accurate at all so it will shoot but probably will not hit anything but innocent bystanders.
