Glossaries Description -
A semi-automatic pistol has a short recoil when the barrel and the breechblock are locked together for only a short distance of rearward travel at the recoil, at which point the two are uncoupled and the barrel is stopped while the breechblock continues rearward, extracting the spent shell casing from the chamber. |
