  1. I don’t agree with leaving out blowbacks just because they're blowbacks. Especially the FN1903 and Beretta 1915. The 9X20mm Browning Long, 9mm Glisenti, 8mm Roth Steyr and the military loads of 9mm Steyr develop practically the same energy. The FN and Beretta had not weight disadvantages over the breechlocks (The Beretta was actually the lightest of the pistols firing the four cartridges, and the Steyr M1912 the heaviest). Blowbacks were easier to build, so why are they excluded?
