AR-15 Full Auto Meltdown! Nitride Treated Barrel (HD)
This video details a full-auto AR-15 barrel meltdown test, pushing a Nitride (Melonite) treated barrel to its limits. The test, conducted by Mrgunsngear Channel, involved firing 1,069 rounds consecutively to assess barrel durability and heat effects. The speaker, an experienced firearm instructor, notes significant heat-related malfunctions and wear, concluding that while the Melonite finish turned white, the barrel's rifling remained largely intact, though the gas port showed slight erosion. A follow-up with Faxon is planned for deeper analysis.
