The EZ is so easy to rack that I thought for sure, it would be even snappier than the rest. I am pleased to say I was wrong. This one is an unbelievably soft shooter and had zero malfunctions despite the fact that it looked as if it hadn't been cleaned in awhile.
I'm guessing he only cleans them at the end of the day and I was not the first one to rent it that day.
Were all the other 380s you have used been straight blowback designs? The 380 EZ is a locked breech gun, so the recoil is much tamer.
