90.3 Failure to eject (FEJ). The cartridge is removed from
the chamber but is not ejected from the weapon, causing the spent
case to become jammed between the bolt and the chamber face.
90.4 Failure to extract (FEX). The bolt moves to the rear
with the spent cartridge case remaining in the chamber.
90.5 Double feed (DF). Two cartridges are stripped from
the magazine and the bolt attempts to simultaneously feed both
into the chamber. A weapon stoppage results from this defect.
90.6 Failure to feed (FFD). The fired cartridge case is
ejected, but the next cartridge is not successfully fed into the
chamber. This may result from a variety of causes.
90.7 Failure to fire (FFR). The fired cartridge case is
ejected and the next cartridge is fed properly into the chamber,
but due to any number of situations, the cartridge does not fire.
A misfire would fall under this category.
90.8 Uncontrolled fire. Any occasion where more shots are
fired than that which was demanded: in semi-automatic fire, one
trigger pull producing two or more rounds to fire; in the M16A1's
fully automatic mode, a failure to promtly stop when the trigger
is released; in the M16A2's 3-round burst mode, one trigger pull
producing four or more rounds to fire.
90.9 Other. Any other weapon stoppage or defect
encountered during firing.
