When a rifle fires, a sequence of events takes place. After the firing pin strikes the primer, what is the next event in the sequence
The primer explodes and ignites the gunpowder.
Primer being struck by firing pin causes fire which ignites the gunpowder which burns and produces gas which forces the projecitle down the bore of the weapon.
It has a small amount of material that is sensitive to shock. When a firing pin strikes the primer, it ignites.
Firing pin strikes primer, primer ignites powder in case, expanding gases push projectile down the bore.
When the firing pin strikes the primer, a combustible mixture ignites and the flame goes through the flash hole to ignite the powder.
Firing pin strikes primer, primer ignites powder, powder burns and turns into gas, gas expands and pushes projectile out of the barrel
With firearms, the primer contains an impact sensitive explosive, such as sodium azide. The firing pin strikes the primer, crushing it, and the pellet of explosive. The resulting explosion serves to ignite the gunpowder in the cartridge.

After the hunter pulls the trigger, the firing pin strikes the primer of the shotgun shell, igniting the gunpowder inside. This rapid combustion generates a high-pressure gas that pushes the shot pellets out of the shell and down the barrel. The shot then exits the muzzle, propelled by the expanding gases, allowing for the intended discharge toward the target.
You activate the trigger, the hammer or striker hits the firing pin, the firing pin strikes the primer in the cartridge, which ignites the powder charge in the case.
When a shotgun fires, the trigger is pulled, causing the firing pin to strike the primer of the shotgun shell. The primer ignites, creating a spark that ignites the gunpowder in the shell. The gunpowder rapidly burns, producing gases that propel the wad, shot, or slug out of the barrel of the shotgun.
