Quoted: Both the Oly and Colt style pistol caliber carbines use a spring loaded firing pin.

Edited to add: I placed an order for 200 and 230 gr JHP 45 Super ammo yesterday. That stuff ain't cheap! Will try to post accuracy results. I'd love to chrony this stuff from an 11.5" bbl upper, too bad I don't have a chrony. Anyone care to step up to the plate?
Yuppers, that was exactly what Kurt/Curt at Oly arms told me on the phone. Good, one less thing to worry about.

What I've found out with that type of case is the blow back is going to be
greater therefore more powder in your face thanks Skip
