MAB PA-15 is a delayed blowback operated, semi-automatic pistol.
It featured Savage-type, rotating, but not reciprocating, barrel, which has two lugs: one under the chambers is engaged in the frame and allows to the barrel to rotate but not to move back or forward.
The other lug, on the upper surface of the barrel, is engaged in the curved-shaped notch inside the slide.
When the pistol is fired, the barrel inertia and the bullet torque acted against the blowback force of the slide via the slope-shaped part of the notch.
When bullet leaves the barrel, the slide rotates barrel and retracts to cycle the action.
MAB PA-15 has a frame mounted safety, on the left side of the frame, and also internal magazine safety, which does not allow the gun to be fired with magazine removed.
