Blowback is a system of operation for self-loading firearms that obtains energy from the motion of the cartridge case as it is pushed to the rear by expanding gas created by the ignition of the propellant charge. [1] Several blowback systems exist within this broad principle of operation, each distinguished by the methods used to control bolt ...
This principle of metallic adhesion of dissimilar metals became known as the Blish principle. Blish put this theory to use in a delayed-blowback breech mechanism. He developed a working model that used a simple wedge as the delay mechanism, and was eventually assigned U.S. patent 1,131,319 on March 9, 1915.
Blowback: A system of operation for self-loading firearms that obtains power from the motion of the cartridge case as it is pushed to the rear by expanding gases created by the ignition of the powder charge. [3] Blow-forward: A system of operation that pushes the weapon's bolt forwards to eject the bullet and cycle the action.
Blow forward (left) vs. blowback (right) operation. The Mannlicher M1894 pistol, the first blow-forward firearm.. Blow forward is a firearm action where the propellant gas pressure and the friction of the bullet traveling down the bore drag the whole gun barrel forward to facilitate the opening of the breech.

According to Newtonian mechanics, if the gun and shooter are at rest initially, the force on the bullet will be equal to that on the gun-shooter. This is due to Newton's third law of motion (For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction). Consider a system where the gun and shooter have a combined mass m g and the bullet has a mass m b.
The secrets to their success vary: Dabl, owned by Paramount but managed by Weigel broadcasting, switched to a comedy format in 2024, airing mostly shows from the early days of UPN (“Girlfriends ...
Rotating bolts are found in delayed blowback, gas-operated, recoil-operated, bolt action, lever-action, and pump-action weapon designs. In some forms of delayed blowback, the rotating bolt is used as the delay mechanism: the bolt head rotates as the firing pin strikes, locking the chamber until the gas pressure reaches a safe level to extract.
