Yes- the spring pushes on the follower, which pushes the cartridge up. Too much tension, and the cartridge is shoved against the bottom of the bolt.

How do weapons unload the casings from their bullets?

By bolt action, recoil, pump-action or lever action. A casing is hot after the bullet has been fired, so pulled back on a bolt will open the chamber and fling the casing out. Fully automatic and semi-auto guns fire with recoil. The blast from firing a bullet launches the hammer back and allows the casing to come flying out a hole in the side of the gun. Lever action works pretty much the same as bolt-action and was used before weapons could load in a new bullet. The lever would push out the old casing and put in a new bullet and casing in. Pump action works just the same as lever action, but was used because you could keep your eye on the target while pumping, instead of having to aim, shoot, move the lever and reaim, you could just aim, shoot, pump, and shoot again without having to look around for your target.


What type of gun that does not eject shell casings?

Many types. First, muzzle loaders do not use cartridge casings. Only autoloading firearms automatically eject a fired casing.

What is a bolt action air soft gun?

All Bolt action rifles work the same. When you fire you have to manually operate the Bolt to eject the shell casing and load the next shot. This must be done for each shot until the rifle is empty. In the case of Air soft there is no Shell casing, but it's the same action to load and fire.


What is churning in pumps?

When a pump is running with its discharge valve closed. The temperature inside pump rises continuously as the same liquid is continuously rotating inside pump. Due to rise in temperature of liquid, metal component's temperature also begin to rise. As the mass of impeller is much less than the pump casing. The expansion due to heat on impeller is higher than the casing. As there is very less clearance between pump casing and impeller. A time comes when impeller starts rubbing against the casing which further increases its temperature and the impeller seizes with casing. This is known as churning.
