Excellent suggestion Tracker!

Will you take care of that for us?

Not me, I was just quoting their manual. Since you disagree
with the locked breech bit you might want to set them
straight with some eloquent phrases.

The recoil designs of semi-automatic pistols come in many forms, but they can all generally be said to fall into two categories: locked breech and blowback. Each type has several variations, in some of which aspects of one are borrowed from the other. Rather than attempt a prolonged discussion in this post, section 3 at the following link provides a rather good summary of an extraordinarily complex subject about which doctoral dissertations have been written:

Thanks, Richard; this was another non-essential issue going
nowhere fast.

Tracker,

Chill, I think you have had a tad to much of the KoolAid.  Yes, I have been around long enough to understand the meaning of that phrase on this forum.

If ANYONE reads the posts and follows links and READS the information then there is no such thing as "going nowhere".

It is obvious you don't like me.  No problem.  Try to concentrate on shareing information AND opinions, I do know the difference, not your personal dislikes of individuals.  I have been quilty of the same in the past.  We are all human and all make mistakes.  The key is to learn and change, but even if that is not possible then shareing information is just as good.
