A Walther PPK-L manufactured in 1966. In the 1960s, Walther produced the PPK-L, which was a lightweight variant of the PPK.

As the slide moves back, an extractor hooks the empty casing and pulls it out of the chamber after which the ...

A Hi-Point JCP pistol. Hi-Point semi-automatic pistols are polymer framed handguns based on the blowback design. Different from other blowback design pistols such as the Walther PPK, the P-64, and the Astra 600 which use a heavy slide combined with a stiff recoil spring to hold the breech closed, these pistols use a heavier slide so they can use a softer recoil spring.
Most simple blowback rifles are chambered for the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. Popular examples include the Marlin Model 60 and the Ruger 10/22. Most blowback carbines and submachine guns are chambered for pistol cartridges such as the 9×19mm Parabellum, .40 S&W and .45 ACP. Examples include the MP 40, Sten and UZI.
