Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

Gas delay has been used on one of the best suppressed pistol ever. The H&K P9S plus the P-7,P-13 and the mighty desert eagle use gas delay. Best suppressed? Why is that? And what are the criteria? My theory is that, being delayed on opening until the gas pressure is low, will keep the highest p...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

That sucks to hear. What happened? Neither of them are salvageable? Pics? I will post pics this weekend. I made the same error on both, for different reasons. I turned the OD of the barrel too small to be press fit into the gas block. On the first blank, I was turning that critical OD, about to tak...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

I ruined both my barrel blanks. I'm furious. I don't have any spare cash to buy more. Nothing has gone my way in a long time. It will be a while before I try again. We in this small 'elite' band of brothers have total empathy! We all have been there and by the grace of the Universe are still standi...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

I received the two barrel blanks from Chaszel the other day and got started today making the new barrel. Most of the day was spent getting my tailstock aligned and then making an aluminum "device" (Arbor? Mandrel? Spider? Chuck?) To hold the barrel blank between centers true to the bore, a...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

HaHa! You got me thinking about making a Die Filer, It wouldn’t be hard to make one or change the shaper into a horizontal one. On the shaper you would only need to remove the clapper and install a clamping block for the file. Yeah that would certainly make a stout die filer! Way better than using ...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

I have a Machinist and Motorcycle Mechanic background. Do a little local Gunsmithing on the side. I have a old 13” SB lathe, 7” SB shaper and a Bridgeport J Head. No CNC stuff yet. Yeah, I’m a Gear & Gizmo head too. The CA AW ban got me into building guns. When I moved to TX I started on the fo...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

Well I just ordered 2 (the last 2) of these chambered barrel blanks. https://chaszel.com/product/9mm-heavy-barrel-blanks/ Two chances to get it right. The one I linked to earlier was less money for more barrel blank, but it wasn't chambered. I didn't realize chamber reamers were so expensive. If I ...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

Is the chamber fluted? Does the barrel have a flat or splines where it interfaces with the frame? If it does, that would make it easy to keep the barrel bleed hole lined up with the frame hole when pressing in the barrel. I’m a older shooter. Was thinking of myself when I wrote that. The idea of ri...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

I've got the CCP disassembled now on a new train of thought. This barrel has very few features. I believe it is well within my capacity to machine an entirely new barrel for it, rather than try to modify the one I have. I have never seriously considered machining a pistol barrel because I'm used to ...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

The gas bleeding into the lower chamber creates a secondary variable pneumatic recoil spring so the primary coil spring can be lighter. As the the bullet moves down the barrel the pressure reduces in the gas chamber until the piston cuts the vent off. I would think that the system would work equall...

Re: Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

I got the CCP for my wife, for those reasons advertised (easy to rack, less recoil) but after shooting it I decided I wanted it more than she did. I just love the way it feels. I like the gun. It is complicated to take down, I don't care. I don't know the extent of what the reviews say, never bother...

Silencer on a gas delayed blowback pistol?

Hi, first post here. I have a Walther CCP and I'm curious about how it would act with a silencer on it, since it's gas delayed blowback. This gas delay system is rather unique and uncommon, and google has indicated to me that when this specific question is asked on an internet forum there is a high ...
