Difference between Blowback (firearms) and Submachine gun

Blowback (firearms) vs. Submachine gun

Blowback is a system of operation for self-loading firearms that obtains energy from the motion of the cartridge case as it is pushed to the rear by expanding gas created by the ignition of the propellant charge. A submachine gun (SMG) is a magazine-fed, automatic carbine designed to fire pistol cartridges.

Carbine

A carbine, from French carabine, is a long gun firearm but with a shorter barrel than a rifle or musket.
