Except for the case of zero-recoil, the counter-recoil force is smaller than the recoil force but lasts for a longer time. Since the recoil force and the counter-recoil force are not matched, the gun will move rearward, slowing down until it comes to rest. In the zero-recoil case, the two forces are matched and the gun will not move when fired.
Recoil is a 2011 Canadian-American [2] [3] action film directed by Terry Miles and starring Steve Austin, Danny Trejo, Serinda Swan and Keith Jardine. It premiered in the United States on 6 March 2012.
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.

In firearms, a blowback system is generally defined as an operating system in which energy to operate the firearm's various mechanisms, and automate the loading of another cartridge, is derived from the inertia of the spent cartridge case being pushed out the rear of the chamber by rapidly expanding gases produced by a burning propellant, typically gunpowder.

An M40 recoilless rifle on its M79 "wheelbarrow" tripod Diagram of the operation of a recoilless rifle using a vented case. A recoilless rifle (), recoilless launcher (), or simply recoilless gun, sometimes abbreviated to "RR" or "RCL" (for ReCoilLess) [1] is a type of lightweight artillery system or man-portable launcher that is designed to eject some form of countermass such as propellant ...
A muzzle brake or recoil compensator is a device connected to, or a feature integral (ported barrel) to the construction of, the muzzle or barrel of a firearm or cannon that is intended to redirect a portion of propellant gases to counter recoil and unwanted muzzle rise. [1] Barrels with an integral muzzle brake are often said to be ported.
