The C&Rsenal documentary delves into the history and mechanics of the Spanish Campo-Giro 1913/16 pistol, an early semi-automatic firearm chambered in 9x23mm Largo. It highlights the pistol's design evolution by Venancio López de Ceballos, its blowback operation with a unique buffer system, and its limited production impacted by WWI. Despite its robust construction and historical significance, the review notes ergonomic challenges and significant recoil during live fire testing.
