The MK19 cycle of operations includes which sequence?

• A. Feeding, chambering, firing, extracting, ejecting, cocking
• B. Feeding, chambering, locking, firing, unlocking, ejecting, cocking
• C. Feeding, chambering, firing, extracting, ejecting, cocking
• D. Feeding, chambering, firing, ejecting, extracting, cocking

Answer: (A)

The MK19 cycles by feeding a round into the chamber, chambering it, firing, then dealing with the spent case before preparing for the next round. After a live round is fed from the belt, the bolt seats it in the chamber and locks. When you fire, the gas-operated action drives the bolt back, and the chamber is opened by this movement. The extractor pulls the spent cartridge from the chamber, the ejector throws it clear from the weapon, and the mechanism then cocks the hammer so the system is ready for the next cycle. Locking/unlocking happens automatically as part of the breech operation and isn’t a separate step you perform, so the sequence ends with cocking to reset for the next round.
