Ok, I have no firearms experience but I know some of you do and am hoping someone can satisfy a curious mind...
I've seen that a bolt action sniper rifle without a magazine can still be fired by chambering individual rounds one after the other - now, I'm basing this on a scene from The Hurt Locker (which I believe to be authentic, but unsure), so please correct me if wring. The rifle in question was a .50cal.
My question, is if this is possible with any/all other types of firearm?
For example, if you have a handgun and bullets but no clip, can you chamber a single round to fire, then chamber another etc.?
The same with an assault rifle/carbine - weapon and rounds but no mag to hold them...
Thanks SEC!
