 new Browning .22 LR 1911 "innerds"? [SOLVED?]

Has anyone seen or read what the internals of the new 85% sized .22LR 1911 are? I've seen a Shooting Times video by Craig Boddington that says the pistol operates and disassembles just like the big 1911. So, does it have a toggled barrel, or a fixed barrel (like the GSG and Colt Umarex .22LR 1911's)?

UPDATE: I found this in a product description. "All controls operate just as those in the original John M Browning-designed Model 1911. The action is the straight blowback design that offers enhanced simplicity and reliability." So... it would seem that it is not a toggled action, but a pinned barrel.

Delayed blowback would be a needless complication in a 22.

Yeah... but it would be cool ! A mini 1911
