I just found out that the walther ccp has the gas system like a p7 and p9, I had no idea! Anybody have one with a threaded barrel? If so, how does it sound?
Other than a Remington 51 and r51, what other pistols chambered in a subsonic round have some sort of delayed blowback? |

I want to say that Dr. Dater or maybe someone from AAC stated the P7 is a noisy host. I'd assume that any gas delayed system would be equally loud. A P9 could be a fun host, but I have no idea how hard or expensive it would be to get a threaded barrel or have the factory barrel extended.

The only delayed blowback guns I'm familiar with are the Five-SeveN and HK P7.
Pretty much every single .380 and under gun that isn't recoil operated is straight up "blowback"; I'm unaware of any that utilize any sort of delaying mechanism. I love learning about the different action styles and how that relates to suppression: blowback, delayed blowback, short-recoil. Hopefully someone chimes in with something new and interesting. |

Not sure where all the misunderstanding are coming from. First, nobody seems to understand what "delayed blowback" is.
The following systems are RECOIL-operated: 1) Browning tilting-barrel as in 1911, Glock, etc. 2) Walther wedge block like P38, Beretta 92, etc. 3) Rotating Barrel (Also Browning design) like Beretta Cougar The following systems are BLOWBACK operated with some sort of delay action: 1) Gas-delayed like the HK P7, Walther CCP, Steyr GB. 2) Roller-delayed like the HK P9 (but not the CZ 52... that is roller-LOCKED and recoil operated) 3) Lever-delayed like the Benelli 76 series 4) Toggle-delayed like the Luger 5) Hesitation-locked or "Pedersen Lock" like the Remington 51 and R51 Okay, that's a pretty comprehensive list of delayed blowback guns. Can somebody add to the list? Of the guns on this list, only the CCP and R51 are still being made. Both are compact guns and neither are a good candidate for suppression. They're also both kinda crap guns. I own both and would not spend the money to get a threaded barrel on either. If you want to understand the difference between RECOIL and BLOWBACK, think about the system. If the breach (slide) moves relative to the barrel while the bullet is still in the barrel, it's blowback. If it stays still as in if it LOCKS to the slide and the barrel moves ANY while locked, then it is recoil operated. So, if your gun has a fixed barrel during firing, it is either blowback or gas operated. Forgot to list the gas guns. Uh, the Wildey and the Desert Eagle. Not all of them, but that about covers it. No, not all guns in 9mm or larger pistols are recoil-operated or delayed. I can think of three off the top of my head: Hi-Point, HK VP7, Intratec CAT-9. These would be absolutely HORRIBLE for suppressing, though. ETA: bolded the word "Blowback" for emphasis and fixed some grammar |

Any handgun over .380 is pretty much some form of delayed blowback. Have a look at this article in the wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_delayed-blowback_firearms View Quote Short-Recoil rules the day for pistols, with blowback being the dominant system in .380 and below. Delayed blowback is pretty rare. |

Here's you another one, just stupid expensive and not in the States yet.
https://www.recoilweb.com/exclusive-alien-pistol-from-laugo-arms-142190.html Looks like gas piston on the right, spring on the left, above the barrel. LOL at 0:13, asian dude crawling all up in the works with his camera to get his good pictures so he can copy it. Had one dude literally try to crawl up in my lap to get a picture of the bits of an FSAE car I was working on back in college. ???????? Laugo Arms Alien This one shows a teardown. First look at ALIEN pistol from Laugo Arms |

So I have a Makarov and a P7.
Both have a fixed barrel and moving slide. The P7 has a small piston which I assume is to retard the recoil since a 9x19 is a larger round and has more powder than a 9x18. Are these basically the same system? |

View Quote The Mak is a "straight-blowback" and the P7 is a gas-retarded "delayed-blowback". But both are blowback guns compared to the majority of pistols which operate on the short-recoil system. |

Quoted: This. Short or long recoil systems are a locked breech, which is by definition not a form of blowback.

View Quote ETA: Forgot about Blow-Forward. This is all off the top of my head. Sure I missed some. Radial-delay like on the CMMG Guard? Floating chamber like the Ace conversion. Racking my mind. |

Quoted:
There is also chamber-ring delay like on the Seecamp pistols. View Quote The "Hybrid" system used in the CMR-30 could be considered delayed blowback, I guess, since the breech is never mechanically locked. But the CMR is a poor suppressor host, tends to not run reliably and beats itself to death with the extra weight on the barrel, even running very light cans. I tried with my 4.1 oz Ocelot and 2.5 oz Lynx, broke take down pins and trashed the little buffers very quickly. Might do OK with my 1.6 oz Ocelot Micro, but the all aluminum innards wouldn't take .22 WMR from a 4-1/2" barrel very well, and you don't get much suppression from a 1x3" can on a short .22 WMR barrel |

The point of my question was to find other pistols that might be quieter than average.
I hate trying to figure things out on the internet, but consensus of people who have shot a p7 say it's only average in the sound department. I'll assume a ccp would be similar. I thought the p9 was the same gas design as a p7, but I was wrong. Almost irrelevant as a p9 is far too expensive for me. Anybody seen a silenced Remington 51(not r51)? |

Maxim9 looks like delayed blowback, not gas delayed but mechanically delayed.
No threaded barrels available for it yet though. |

The point of my question was to find other pistols that might be quieter than average. View Quote Not to forget the basic noise of cycling any gun, which revolvers have an advantage if they seal on ignition. IIRC some Webley did that. Now include the capture volume of a silencer defined by it's length and diameter, a larger one can be quieter than a short skinny one. The result is that attempting to choose the action to enhance the final level of volume is pretty far down the list. |

Quoted:
While just an opinion, I'll suggest that barrel length and the load of the cartridge have more to do with the relative noise levels. IE a two inch barrel shooting +P+ vs a 6 inch shooting a soft target load, even within the ability to cycle it.

The point of my question was to find other pistols that might be quieter than average. I've got an SRT Matrix which is 1.25? diameter, and 6.4? long, and weighs 5.5 ounces. It is built to work on the Beretta 92 and functions and sounds great with no booster. Won't work on browning actions, but I'd love it if the Walther CCP was available in a threaded model just to have a small light weight option that I'd never use. I have used it on my AR in 9mm before. I thought the p9 was the same gas design as a p7, but I was wrong. Almost irrelevant as a p9 is far too expensive for me. I think the problem is that you won't find a cheap option that uses a complicated design (compared to browning or fixed) and also has a threaded option anyway, so... yeah. |

Doesnt the desert eagle work off of a rotating bolt that is gas actuated, (basically a m4 pistol in .357, .44, or .50AE).
|
|
CZ52 or HK P9S with custom rollers to further delay the blowback, not sure they'd be any quieter than a locked breech system though.
If anyone made a long recoil pistol that would likely be the quietest semi auto action. |
|
Yes. That's also why firing unjacketed bullets out of a Desert Eagle tends to be a bad idea: it clogs the gas port.

Yes, I did. And yes, it's a huge can for .44mag.
While it's not the quietest thing in the world, I'm still amazed at how quiet it is. I really expected a whole lot more noise than that! |

Yeah, that's pretty true. Here, let me specify (and all in good fun): I expected to hear an echo, but the can appears to be functional at seemingly reducing the overall sound of firing a .44mag out of a pistol. Happy?

The Wilson ADP wasn't Tanfoglio. It's from South Africa. It was imported as the Heritage Stealth for a few years as well. It's a complete piece of shit.
