Uses high-pressure gas to cycle the action, rather than recoil energy.

Adjustable metal aiming devices on firearms, consisting of a front post and rear notch, used without magnification.

Short recoil is a firearm operating mechanism where the barrel and slide move together for a short distance after firing, then separate to complete extraction, ejection, and chambering.
