Looks like it's just letting the recoil handle the trigger reset & pull... Fast, but I don't see a huge practical application for it. I'd also suspect a lot of semi-autos are likely to jam doing it, because that recoil energy is part of the ejection & loading process.

I dunno, Iv'e bump fired an AK, and it never jammed. The wood fore-grip gets too hot to hold after a couple mags tho.

It's not hard with a little practice...I've done it with an AR and an AK.

Other than making lots of noise and getting looks from the other people at the range (which admittedly is kinda fun :D), it's not really practical for anything.
