Why has nobody made a pistol using the gas delayed blowback system of a Steyr GB?
>Simpler than the HK P7s design, and doesn't burn your hands shooting
>Allows for a very low bore axis
>Fixed barrel, recoils softer, easier to rack than a short recoil
Seems like a Glock killer to me.

Because there's no money in designing new things, when everybody just wants the same old Glock off.

Still, fuck cleaning carbon shit out of your fun every few hundred rounds.

Is grabbing a beer and rewatching MASH while cleaning not good enough for you?

Glocks aren't.

Walter ccp?

GB 18 lost the Austrian military contractvto the Glock which started the whole glock saga.
M8 had one.
Smooth recoil action due to the gas delay.
Big mag capacity
Fixed barrel accuracy over browning tilt designs
>a lost opportunity

The Steyr improved upon the P7/CCP design simply by moving the piston around the barrel instead of under it.

Wouldn't it just heat up the slide then?

one of the guns on my i want it list, right after a proper jericho 941 and just ahead of a SCAR

Well man. some people like to have an object they never have to interact with other than to use for its intended function.
We call them apple users, prius drivers, and company.
Then you have those who dont mind opening up and maintaining their product, which is more time intensive, but often delivers a more satisfying user experience and somewhat higher quality operation; for the kind of person who choose to seek out such a product.
You, are the kind of person who uses an Iphone, Imac, and doesn't want to "fiddle" with things because its hard.

you still have to clean other guns, just less often. Gas blowback aren't magically better, they get hot around the gas chamber and they need more cleaning. It's a tradeoff like any other design
>>32626014
>gas blowback
>softer recoil
choose only one

Give a few engineers a Walther CCP and tell them to figure out how it's Soft Coil tech works, then apply it to the pistol.
German Company make a Clone of the Steyer GB

I own and build my own PCs and have literally only ever had to open one for maintenance once after like 6 years of not working on it.
