Any occurrence of breech flash that will cause hazardous

or unsafe conditions for a shooter (either right or left-handed).

Any occurrence of breech sparks which eject into the area of the

shooter.

Any other defect that is likely to result in hazardous or

unsafe conditions.

exceeds the number of rounds expected to fire. For example, if in

the single shot mode, one trigger pull results in the firing of

more than one round.

critical.

Any other defect that is not critical but is likely to

result in failure or to reduce materially the usability of the

round or weapon for its intended purpose.

Any instance of breech sparks which do not eject into the

area of the shooter.

Any other defect that is not likely to reduce materially

the usability of the round or weapon for its intended purpose or

is departure from established standards having little bearing on

the effective use or operation of the round.
