This is actually brilliant. For an handgun made to be inexpensive, it's so much more elegant than an Hi-Point. It only needs a simpler disassembly method (not really difficult to implement) and a better trigger (there is no treason for it to be worse than any semiauto SA hammer trigger, it's only a question of specs and assembly).

@americanmade6996 Screws are not bad and their price is hardly beatable, but a ball-lock pin costs few cents, and a pair of them could have made the disassembly process entirely tool-less.

@americanmade6996 The "tail" of the barrel can't really pass through the frame when the halves are screwd togheter. Other screws do the work of tightening the frame, and others can be added without interfering with the barrel (IE in front of the "tail" of the barrel). All the barrel need is one or two pins to secure it to the frame. That can rise the manufacturing price of the gun of few cents, but mind that the competitor was a Makarov clone, that didn't need tools to be disassembled.

Any cartridge can be safely fired in a blowback design. It's just a question of weight of the bolt/slide. Almost any 9mm Para SMG is a blowback design, and they are super-safe. Actually the weight of the slide to be safe against case ruptures in a 9mm para design is pretty low. More weight and/or more stiffness of the main spring and/or bufer springs/recoil pads are needed to prevent the slide to slam into the frame with enough force to damage one, the other, or both.
