cartridge failure
I've been playing with the bump fire lately and have that thing running. Zipper fast , but today it self destructed, I had a cartridge rim rupture and blew out the extractor and ejector. I was having problems with no bump after a few mags, I found out if you oil the **** out of the bolt it screams, more oil the better, clean at the end of the day.

Kinda amazing how things break when you use a gun in a way that it was not designed.

It wasn't a cartridge failure.....Somehow your rifle fired the round before the bolt was fully closed.....With no chamber support it let go.......

I feel NO SYMPATHY for people who blow up their firearms playing "I've got a machine gun"!

My cousin's 15-22 blew its extractor out the first day and he wasn't doing any of that. Firing pin chipped a couple weeks later. I've seen enough evidence to think this model needs some work. Glad I didn't get one now. Many good stories I've read, but too many bad experiences.

It is not possible for an AR to fire out of battery unless there was a defect in the mechanism (dirt or mechanical). "Bump firing" had nothing to do with this.

The 15-22 is NOT AN AR!
It is an AR pattern rifle. Like almost all .22LR semi-auto firearms is is blowback operated, and not a locked breech. An OOB is entirely possible under particular circumstances... most often a dirty chamber or bolt face.
