  3. Recoil buffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recoil_buffer

    This type of buffer cushions the battering force of repeated metal on metal impact, reducing wear on parts and lengthening the service life of the firearm. [4] Reduction of perceived recoil discomfort is an immediate added benefit of this type of recoil buffer. [4] Some pneumatic recoil buffers used in firearms are fast, low-power gas springs ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recoil

    For example, gas-operated shotguns are widely held to have a "softer" recoil than fixed breech or recoil-operated guns (although many semi-automatic recoil and gas-operated guns incorporate recoil buffer systems into the stock that effectively spread out peak felt recoil forces.) In a gas-operated gun, the bolt is accelerated rearwards by ...

  5. Hydraulic recoil mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_recoil_mechanism

    The usual recoil system in modern quick-firing guns is the hydro-pneumatic recoil system. In this system, the barrel is mounted on rails on which it can recoil to the rear, and the recoil is taken up by a cylinder which is similar in operation to an automotive gas-charged shock absorber , and is commonly visible as a cylinder mounted parallel ...

  6. Muzzle booster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muzzle_booster

    A muzzle booster or recoil booster is a device fixed to the muzzle of a firearm, intended to harness the energy of the escaping propellant to augment the force of recoil on portions of the firearm. In spite of its name, a muzzle booster does not increase muzzle force or velocity but instead is usually used to improve the reliability and/or rate ...
