Default GS-221 rifle can someone help me, please?

This is my only last hope...Does someone know whare is the carging handle on a standerd CARB assault rifle? I'm trying to make it out of cardboard and I'm afraid I'll mess it up for who knows which attempe. If someone knows whare it is and can explain the machanism/workings of this weapon. I can see the ejection port on some of the pictures (on diffrent sides) and on some of them thare's no ejection port-I'm confused just post the picture of it with the marked charging handle. this is important to me Can someone heelp me, please?

of this rifle:

I think that's a real-life rifle, not Avatar-related - no idea how it operates though.

According to imfdb.org, the firearms used in filming Avatar are visually modified Ruger Mini-14. In the lore, I believe it uses caseless ammunition, which is something that is being researched right now (see LSAT).

Well you might be right, but on the pics you can visually see the ejection port.
