The simplest form of recoil buffer is made from a resilient and deformable material (leather, rubber, polymer e.g. a rubber butt pad on a shotgun). [1] A second way of producing a recoil buffer is to insert a spring into the recoil train—the path/part(s) generating recoil impulse.
The moving and the motionless masses are coupled by a spring that absorbs the recoil energy as it is compressed by the movement and then expands providing energy for the rest of the operating cycle. Since there is a minimum momentum required to operate a recoil-operated firearm's action, the cartridge must generate sufficient recoil to provide ...
Starting a Lazair II ultralight aircraft's JPX PUL 425 engine, equipped with a recoil starter. A rope start device housed in a Nose bullet of a Junkers Jumo 004 turbojet.. Rope start (also called ripcord [citation needed], pull start [citation needed], or rewind start [citation needed]) is a method of starting an internal combustion engine, usually on small machines, such as lawn mowers ...

The Riverside neighborhood is a historic neighborhood on the near west side of Indianapolis, Indiana, United States. The housing consists mainly of American foursquare-type homes and bungalows built in the 1910s to 1920s. Seventy-five percent of the homes in the area were built before 1939. [1]
Riverside Park housed Indianapolis’ first zoological garden, beginning in 1898 with exhibits containing eagles and foxes. In 1899, a bear pit was built into the hillside near the cold springs. The 20-foot (6.1 m) diameter pit housed two brown bears and was enclosed by stone steps and two concentric seven-foot (2.1 m) iron fences.
Since dangerous game was shot at ranges under 50 yd (46 m), a smoothbore was sufficiently accurate, while at the same time providing higher velocities and lower recoil, and needing less cleaning. The prominent British gunmaker W. W. Greener even recommended against rifled barrel firearms above 8-bore and continued producing larger calibers ...
Indian Springs is an unincorporated community in Mitcheltree Township, Martin County, in the U.S. state of Indiana. [1] History. Indian Springs was laid out in 1889. [3]
