Abstract

The article is focused on the application of the reliability and experimental statistics theory to predict the distribution of the cylinder inner diameter and the piston outer diameter post-manufacture for the gas-operated automatic rifles. Besides, the influence of these dimensions on the operation of the automatic system was also studied in 5 cases with the maximum, minimum, and the most probable. The study object in the article is 7.62mm AKM-1 rifles. Research results show that the cylinder inner diameter and the piston outer diameter post-manufacture of  7.62mm AKM-1 rifles follow the normal distribution. The research results of the article can be used to establishing technical conditions for new gun acceptance post-manufacture.
