Yep. CMMG's radial delay system is awesome if you can spare the extra cash.Find something that's not straight blowback.
Nothing wrong with straight blowback. I'd take a roller lock or radial delay over a blowback, sure, but not for 2x-3x the cost. It's a 9mm carbine, not a battle rifle. Recoil should not be an issue for most.Find something that's not straight blowback.
That's what I was thinking. It's a handgun round (and not a particularly powerful one at that) for crying out loud. Recoil? What recoil?Nothing wrong with straight blowback.

Although if someone has a line on a CMMG Banshee for a couple hundred bucks more than a PC Carbine or Beretta CX4, I've got a finder's fee for ya.
Its about comfort. I dont mind blowback. But I did shoot a Banshee and it was very nice. But I dont want to pay that much so I dont own one. Maybe if I had extra money to throw away, sure. But I dont shoot my carbine enough to mind the extra kick.Nothing wrong with straight blowback. I'd take a roller lock or radial delay over a blowback, sure, but not for 2x-3x the cost.

I'm guessing that the Hi Point carbine I had (in 45 acp) was blowback. Recoil was very soft. Of course it weighed about 14 lbs, so there's that.Its about comfort. I dont mind blowback.

Funny thing, is as much grief Hi Point gets for their pistol, the carbine is awesome. The worst thing Ive heard about it is that the barrel overheats too quickly. Other than that, its a solid no nonsense (and ugly as sin) carbine.I'm guessing that the Hi Point carbine I had (in 45 acp) was blowback. Recoil was very soft.

They do what they need and are accurate. Have 9mm and 45 version. If the 10mm comes up locally at a good price, I'll probably buy it tooFunny thing, is as much grief Hi Point gets for their pistol, the carbine is awesome.

Well some may find 9mm carbine to have harsh recoil.Nothing wrong with straight blowback. I'd take a roller lock or radial delay over a blowback, sure, but not for 2x-3x the cost. It's a 9mm carbine, not a battle rifle. Recoil should not be an issue for most.
