Another very good and very rare 9mm blowback is the 1909 Dreyse. It had a spring so powerful that it incorporated a slide disconnect in the serrated cocking piece that allowed the slide to be cycled unlocked from the mainspring to load the first round. The photo of this beautiful example is from Bob Adams' website.
