This Gun Failure Test ended in an Unexpected Way

The guys from Thrill On posted this gun failure test by firing his AR on full auto going through several magazines, before the unexpected thing happened.

The gun didn’t stop firing, but it did burst into flames. Watch the video to see if you would classify this as a “gun failure”.

FAILURE TEST!

FAILURE TEST!

Posted by Thrill On

This gun failure test appeared to involve shooting the gun as fast as possible until it quit firing. Well, that didn’t happen.

Instead, it looks like a buildup of lubricant from the rapid fire session reacted to the extremely hot barrel and caught on fire.

How would you classify the outcome?
