Delayed blowback systems offer several advantages that enhance the performance and
reliability of pistol caliber carbines (PCCs).
Brief History
Delayed blowback systems have been utilized in firearms since the early 20th century, with
notable implementations in models like the Heckler & Koch MP5. These systems delay the
rearward movement of the bolt, allowing for more controlled and consistent firing.
Advantages
1. Reduced Recoil: Delayed blowback systems reduce felt recoil, making the firearm easier to
control and improving accuracy. The Black Jack from Show Low MFG utilizes this system,
providing a smoother shooting experience.
2. Improved Reliability: These systems are less susceptible to issues caused by dirt and
debris, enhancing the firearm’s reliability.
3. Enhanced Durability: The controlled bolt movement reduces wear and tear on internal
components, extending the firearm’s lifespan.
4. Better Accuracy: Reduced bolt speed minimizes muzzle rise, allowing for more precise
follow-up shots
By choosing a PCC with a delayed blowback system, like the Black Jack from Show Low MFG,
you are investing in a premium firearm that delivers enhanced control, durability, and accuracy.
Show Low MFG’s dedication to innovation and customer feedback ensures their PCCs meet the
highest standards of performance.
