25
What occurs during feed dwell
The master link slider moves from left to right in the carrier slider path during the feeder assembly rotor will rotate 1/3 of a revolution during this rotation the rotor will sweep the spent case off the bolt face positioning a new round on the bolt face the firing pin is not cocked and the BPI arrow is rotating through feed/ do not remove feeder

How much overlap is there to prevent a new round from being fed into the breech
12.7mm normally 2.5 in the event of a failed cartridge ridge
27
For the M242 to continue to function, normal gun functioning must occur within what amount of time
30 miliseconds
28
In a malfunctioning weapon the Sear assembly provides 100% of the guns stopping power by stopping what
The Roller assembly chain safety link
29
As the bolt assembly continues forward for the last 14.2mm of travel what happens
The firing pin spring is compressed
30
What is the last measurement of movement of the firing pin as the firing pin spring is compressed
14.2mm
31
When is the bolt at its most rearward position
Feed dwell
32
How far rearward is the bolt from Sear when it is in feed dwell
25mm
33
What are the purposes of the muzzle brake
Countering some explosive recoil force, Disperses muzzle blast and reduces blast flash
34
How much recoil is needed to deactivate the rocker assembly
12mm minimum, 14mm Typical, 18mm Maximum
35
What do continuous rim guide and the positive T slot extractors ensure throughout the entire gun cycle
Continuous control of the round position
36
What two things occur once the normal shutdown sensor has been activated
Power is withdrawn completely from the electrical Sear solenoid and power is also shunted from the 1.0 HP VDC motor
37
What failure modes have been identified which represent all modes where the gun WILL CONTINUE TO FUNCTION WITHOUT HANGFIRE PROTECTION
Push rod extension or externally relieved screw breaks. Bolt carrier cam pin breaks. Sear assembly breaks. Interlock crank breaks. Electrical Sear solenoid intermittent
38
The micro switches are joined together by what
The micro switch sensor harness assembly
39
What occurs during fire dwell
Slider moves from right to left in the carrier slider path allowing time for the hot propellant gases escape and chamber pressure to return to safe level prior to unlocking the bolt bpi arrow is rotating through fire poly is making its final locking position
