  2. Bore evacuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bore_evacuator

    By creating a pressure differential in the barrel after the shell leaves, the bore evacuator causes most of the propellant gases and combustion residues to exit via the muzzle. Thus, when the breech opens for reloading, those gases and residues do not escape into the crew compartment and pose a hazard to the gun crew. [1]

  3. Obturation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obturation

    Obturation is the necessary barrel blockage or fit in a firearm or airgun created by a deformed soft projectile. [1] A bullet or pellet made of soft material and often with a concave base will flare under the heat and pressure of firing, filling the bore and engaging the barrel's rifling.

  4. Gas-operated reloading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas-operated_reloading

    Energy from the gas is harnessed through either a port in the barrel or a trap at the muzzle. This high-pressure gas impinges on a surface such as a piston head to provide motion for unlocking of the action, extraction of the spent case, ejection, cocking of the hammer or striker, chambering of a fresh cartridge, and locking of the action.

  5. Smokeless powder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smokeless_powder

    The oxygen deficit is increased by addition of graphite and organic stabilizers. Products of combustion within the gun barrel include flammable gasses like hydrogen and carbon monoxide. At high temperature, these flammable gasses will ignite when turbulently mixed with atmospheric oxygen beyond the muzzle of the gun.

  6. Firearm propellant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firearm_propellant

    Handgun propellants may reach peak pressure before the bullet leaves the cartridge case, while rifle propellants may move a bullet several inches before reaching peak pressure. [4]: 125 The motion and behavior characteristics of projectiles while under the influence of the gases produced by the propellant is known as internal ballistics. [13]

  7. Combustion light-gas gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion_light-gas_gun

    A combustion light-gas gun (CLGG) is a projectile weapon that utilizes the explosive force of low molecular-weight combustible gases, such as hydrogen mixed with oxygen, as propellant. When the gases are ignited, they burn, expand and propel the projectile out of the barrel with higher efficiency relative to solid propellant and have achieved ...

  8. Overbore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overbore

    The case volume or case capacity and barrel bore area can be mathematically related to obtain a case volume to bore area ratio in metric or imperial units. O r a t i o = V o l u m e c a s e A r e a b o r e {\displaystyle {O_{ratio}}={\frac {Volume_{case}}{Area_{bore}}}}

  9. Oxygen compatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_compatibility

    Oxygen compatibility is the issue of compatibility of materials for service in high concentrations of oxygen. It is a critical issue in space, aircraft, medical, underwater diving and industrial applications.
