Blowback is a form of gas operation, albeit in a simplified form. Which one is more accurate would be dependent on the specifications and tolerances of each rifle, rather than the operating mechanism. There are also several different types of blowback operation, with simple blowback being used for low power rounds, handgun cartridges, etc., while most rifles which use blowback operation have some sort of delayed blowback operation.

The gas-operated rifle is generally more accurate than the blowback rifle. Gas-operated systems typically have less recoil and muzzle movement, resulting in better shot-to-shot stability and improved accuracy. Additionally, gas-operated rifles often have better overall design and construction, which further contributes to their superior accuracy.

How is caliber defined?

Caliber typically refers to the maximum diameter of a gun's barrel in hundredths of an inch. Sometimes a stated caliber (like .38 Special) is not equal to its actual caliber (.357 caliber). This is due to several reasons: 1- Marketing, 2- Measuring barrel diameter land to land, 3- Measuring barrel diameter groove to groove. 4- Measuring diameter of the chamber (brass casing diameter). Usually when a firearm uses millimeter instead of caliber, it tends to be a more accurate description of the projectile's diameter.


Can you turn your pt-85 blowback co2 pistol into a bigger caliber?

No. It would requite a larger barrel and then you would have to find a bigger clip to hold the larger pellets. The larger clip would require that the gun be considerably modified. It's not worth it.


How is the caliber of a rifle determined?

Well, it depends on what you mean. The caliber is "determined" at time of production based on whatever caliber the manufacturer wants it to be. The caliber can be determined later by looking on the barrel. The caliber will almost always be stamped somewhere on the barrel.


Does the 50 caliber machine gun have a spiral barrel?

The barrel is straight. However, there are spiral grooves cut on the inside of the barrels. These spiral grooves, called rifling, make the bullet spin when it is fired. Just as a thrown football spins for an accurate throw, the spinning bullet makes for an accurate shot.

Most .22 LR semiautomatic handguns operate by blowback. Basically, the weight of the slide and the recoil spring hold the casing in the chamber long enough for the bullet to leave the barrel. There is no need to for barrel and slide to lock for a low-powered round like the 22LR.
