This review details a torture test of the Faxon ARAK 21 rifle, subjecting it to 600 rounds of 5.56x45mm ammunition, soil, and water. While handling and recoil impulse were noted positively, the rifle experienced significant malfunctions, including failures to feed and trigger reset issues, particularly after contamination with Texas topsoil. Accuracy was measured at 2.75 inches for a 10-shot group at 100 yards, falling short of standard AR-15/M16 performance. The review highlights potential design flaws related to the open ejection port and suggests a broken or fouled trigger return spring as the cause of failures.
