Hi, I'm Mark Serbu, lifelong gun nut, degreed mechanical engineer, gun designer, founder and owner and president of Serbu Firearms, Inc. I'm also a pretty decent self-taught TIG welder, machinist, CNC programmer and assembly guy. I'm trying to teach the basic principles of firearm design and engineering (which apply to ALL product design and engineering), including mechanisms, materials, heat treat, stresses, math, etc. Thanks for stopping by!

    Hi Mark, that first czech small arms receiver, I noticed on that website they also sell barreled "headspaced" receivers... I'm confused, how can they sell it as such if they dont have the customer's bolt? I voiced my concerns and they said it isnt headspaced like an AK? Is that true? Also, would the mean you can swap bolts between guns?

    The button should be revolving at the twist rate so there would be no friction

    At 14:29 it appears you are pushing the swagging tool through backwards. The sizing bulge should go first, enlarging the bore diameter to the correct size. By pushing it through backwards the grooves are actually being cut deeper than they should as the bore is slightly undersized. Heating the barrel may also be required.

    I like your post on the super thirty carry federal. I purchase one from grab asking price two ninety eight with a fifty dollar rebate from smith and wesson. I love all my nine millimeters but i'm getting very comfortable carrying the thirty super carry. I mean, you can't beat.The price comes already cut for optic and has nightsights. I've been taken into the range with several of my 9 millimit is I just like the way it punches holes in the target.I love the sixteen plus one. Ammunition is expensive , but who goes to that range every day. I should want a month and I can afford that. I just wish we could get some more support out there and bring the price of ammunition down. Appreciate. Your outlook on the super thirty. I've been carrying a nineteen eleven forty five a c p since I was twenty one years old. I know. That's my song crazy.But the super thirty carrie seems to be more accurate and if this is right flatter , shooting than a nine millimeter. I sure hope they keep the ammunition coming.I'm trying to buy two boxes every month. Once again. I want to thank you for being so honest

    The dwell might actually slow down the cyclic rate to make it more controllable.

  • @user-sf7lv4jm4c

    The dwell in the cam is probably to allow the bolt carrier to build up momentum as they probably dropped weight in it to make the weapon lighter.

    For the frame to partial over slide, pin it by the trigger guard. Trigger use a hybrid sig 1911 style trigger system. I like modifying existing designs because it is much harder to reinvent the wheel.

    Could you put a slide in a slide to match the frame round. That would solve 2 of your problems. You could even do a partial sleeve to the slide like a model 92. If it raises in the front and back, you have sights and pin it to the frame to attach & hold it all together.

    The design and manufacture will be simplified if two square pipes are used. Just try it. The upper pipe is movable, the lower one is fixed. The main return spring is located in the lower pipe.

    6:49 it was probably modeled off of an airsoft mag. A SURPRISING amount of online gun content is by and for larpers in europe and asia who use stupidly accurate and realistic airsoft replicas. I remember hearing about it several times through my childhood and into my teenage years of kids getting in trouble for having an airsoft gun bc, upon import to the states, the ATF realizes they're so well built all it takes is a few more parts and maybe a little filing and you have a working firearm. I've been tricked by videos up until literally the point they show the tip of the cartridge or disassemble the bolt or slide into thinking this airsoft gun is an actual pew pew. Crazy stuff

    Instead of adding a separate ejector, why not make it as an additional bend on the sheet metal. You would just have to treat it after machining/bending. On the slide removal, if the front bearing cap is threaded/removable, then you should have the clearance where you would not need to enlarge the bottom slot, as you would be lifting the slide from the rear and pivoting upwards and forward. The minimum amount of slotting would be required.

    now for .44magnum, can we add a gas system from the area the slug rests in chamber, like the Deagle? and add rotating locking barrel. Either deagle mag or single stack design by you (for slimness of profile). correction: must be fixed barrel, so need a locking design breakthrough to keep it glock sized
