Rittenhouse trial

[Gelston]

None of my AR's have an ejection port cover or forward assist, I am not humping through the 'Nam or the Sandpit so don't really need it, plus I just think it looks a lot cleaner. But you're right, if it has it then it should be closed until you cycle the bolt.

But hey, give him credit, at least the bolt is forward.

I always had a sort of nervous tick where I always checked my ejection port cover over and over.

It is because right before this he had someone clear it, likely because he had no idea how. The way he was talking about the ammo and all that leads me to believe he learned everything from movies.

He is sitting there acting like FMJ isn't the standard ammo that is available for ARs. And then he is all "It goes through vests!" Well yeah, all rifles do. Soft armor is only made to stop pistols.
