ABSTRACT:
This invention comprises a gas operated forward actuating pistol with a locking bolt to hold the barrel assembly closed until the bullet has passed the port in the barrel. At the passing of the bullet, the gas pressure first moves the lock bolt down freeing the barrel assembly to be pressured forward by the gas pressure. As the barrel assembly moves forward, the extractor/ejector holds the empty cartridge case to be ejected as the barrel clears end of the case. When the barrel reaches the forward stop, a new cartridge rises into position to be chambered as the barrel returns to a lock position with the extractor/ejector spring loaded to a vertical position to ensure chambering.
