	Wadcutter: Autoloader operation systems: Part V
		The system of long recoil is similar to short recoil in that both incorporate a locked breech and a recoiling barrel that is not directly fixed to the frame.
		However, with long recoil both the breechblock and the barrel have independent recoil springs, as opposed to the single spring used in short recoil.
		Another difference is that in long recoil guns the barrel and breechblock (or bolt) are locked together for the full length of a cartridge, as opposed to the quarter-inch or so that is typical for short recoil (hence the two systems respective names).

	Recoil operated - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In a recoil operated handgun, the barrel and slide are locked together during firing.
		After firing, the slide and barrel move together for a short distance until the barrel is disengaged either by a camming link, a falling block or a rotating block system.
		This is also known as a "short recoil" system.

	ArmaLite, Inc. Technical Note - Identification and Correction of Malfunctions (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Short recoil is usually due to an accumulation of fouling in the mechanism.(short stroke may also be caused by a fouled or obstructed gas tube).
		Short recoil cycles or fouled or corroded rifle chambers are the most common causes of failures to extract.
		In short recoil, the bolt lacks sufficient energy to move fully rearward to engage the cartridge base, or, with the base engaged, lacks sufficient energy to complete the feeding operation.

	Types of Operation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		As the slide recoils, the rearward motion of the piston is resisted by the gas pressure bled into the tube.
		In general, the barrel is permitted to recoil so as to deliver impetus to the mechanism; the recoil may be long or short, the latter being more common.
		The long recoil stroke works as a method of compensating for heavy recoil and is usually used in conjunction with some kind of hydraulic buffer system.

	THE SHORT SPIN: “Recoil” by Nonpoint (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Nonpoint’s latest effort, “Recoil,” is an impressive integration of raw, aggressive energy and soothing melodies.
		Formed in 1997 in Southern Florida, Nonpoint (Elias Soriano, Robb Rivera, Andrew Goldman, KB Daniels) has a constantly evolving sound, avoiding the nu-metal cliche yet remaining just narrowly outside the mainstream.
		“Recoil” is by far the most mature of their three albums (Development, 2002; Statement; 2000; Struggle; 1997), yet still contains strong remnants of the explosiveness that made them an underground cult phenomena in their early days in Florida.

	M82
		The M82 is a recoil operated, short barrel stroke, semi-automatic firearm.
		When gun is fired, barrel initially recoils for a short distance (about an inch - 25 mm) being securely locked by the rotating bolt.
		After the short travel a post on the bolt, engaged in the curved cam track in the receiver, turns bolt to unlock it from the barrel.

		The Winchester Short Magnum family uses a case that is nominally.550-inch in diameter, rim rebated to.532-inch (the same as most belted magnums), with a case length of 2.1 inches.
		The short magnums do not achieve "belted magnum performance" by simply using a case that is wide instead of long and burning the same powder charge.
		Less powder weight equals less recoil velocity, and recoil velocity is a key factor (together with gun weight) in deriving foot-pounds of recoil energy.

	MG42 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		MG-42 uses a short recoiling barrel with muzzle recoil booster, somewhat similar in appearance to one found on MG-34.
		When shot is fired, after the short recoil of the barrel with the bolt locked to it, rollers are pushed inward by the shaped cams in the receiver, releasing the bolt head from the barrel.
		Barrel replacement could be made in as short time as 6 to 10 seconds, allowing for high practical rate of fire.

		Long recoil operated, short recoil operated, and gas operated autoloading actions were all devised by John Browning, and the firm that bears his name has made all three types.
		The short recoil shotgun also uses recoil energy for power, but the barrel and bolt are only locked together for a short distance, usually less than 1/2 inch.

	ASSAULT RIFLES AND THEIR AMMUNITION:
		FCAR rounds score well in the traditional methods of measuring stopping power (which are dominated by calibre and bullet weight) and also by being less affected by the bullets striking foliage etc on their way to the target.
		The problem with short barrels in this calibre is that they reduce the muzzle velocity, and the 5.56mm bullets rely on a high impact velocity to tumble and fragment.
		However, given that the USA has expressed the intention of replacing the M4/M16 family and the M249 with a new range of small arms, this is a golden opportunity to test the new cartridges against the Mk 262 before deciding on the calibre of the new weapons.

		With the exception of the slide, frame, barrel, locking block, recoil spring, recoil-spring guide rod and slide lock spring, all other components are interchangeable between the Models 22 and 23.
		During the recoil stroke, the barrel moves rearward approximately 3mm until the bullet leaves the barrel and pressures drop to safe level.

	Wadcutter: Autoloader operation systems: Part II
		The purpose for having the barrel recoil a short distance is two-fold: (1) It allows for a lighter breechblock and/or a less-stiff spring to be used.
		There are a few variations of the Browning system, but in the case of the CZ75, small lugs on top of the rear of the barrel intermesh with corresponding lugs on the interior of the slide, thus locking the two together.
		The most popular non-Browning short recoil systems include those seen on the Berretta 92 (an oscillating wedge locks and unlocks the slide and barrel), and on the Berretta 9000 (lugs on the slide fit into diagonal grooves on the barrel, causing the barrel to rotate as it recoils until it is free of the lugs).

	COMBAT HANDGUNS JUNE 1997: NEW KAHR K40 .40S&W
		Recoil was quite manageable and the pistol never malfunctioned.
		Firing the K40 both out of the box and with a Harrts Recoil Reducer installed, i noticed an estimated drop in felt recoil of about 20% during rapid fire (yes, the Harrts really works), but again, I thought the gun was pretty controllable as issued.
		Heavy recoil diminishes your ability to make rapid, accurate follow-up shots, and in a gunfight, fast well-placed multiple hits are what will save your life.

	TM 9-1275, MALFUNCTIONS & CORRECTIONS
		Short recoil stoppages, often confused with feed stoppages, occur in rifles which are underpowered; and therefore do not drive the operating rod completely to the rear.
		When a weapon is underpowered, and thus subject to short recoil stoppages, it will usually close on an empty chamber or fail to eject the fired case, closing with the spent case in the chamber.
		Feed failures, as in the case of short recoil stoppages, may cause the weapon to close on an empty chamber.

	MG42 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The internals were still a short recoil system like the MG34, but the bolt locking system was a design originally patented by Edward Stecke of Poland.
		However, in a recoil-based firing system, the same recoil is used to move mechanisms which allow the gun to preform the process to fire the weapon and sustain automatic fire.
		The recoil is also reduced through the use of this system as it is dissapated in the firing mechanisms rather than into the operator.

	Midwest Magnum
		Rifle shooters who have determined that they are recoil shy at the.270 Winchester level can probably shoot express loads in their 12 ga. with no problem, but take that 12 ga. to the bench and it will kick harder than the.270.
		Recoil in a heavy rifle, such as the.77 V/T, will likely be so mild that the shooter will be able to watch the bullet strike the target.
		The short neck of the.300 Savage prefers flat-based bullets, which is just fine with me because I think too many armchair ballistics experts fall for the marginal boattail “improvements” shown in the tables.

		Second, it excludes the traditional “full power” military rifle/MG cartridges such as the.303, the.30-06, the 7.92x57 and the 7.62x51 NATO (typically firing 10-12g bullets at 750-850 m/s, and developing around 3,000-4,000 joules), as these are so powerful that their recoil is uncontrollable in fully-automatic fire from the shoulder.
		The downside is that the stopping power becomes more controversial (relying on velocity rather than calibre and bullet mass; which according to combat reports sometimes works, sometimes doesn’t) and the long-range performance begins to decrease again as small-calibre bullets generally have poorer sectional density ratios, and thereby ballistic coefficients, than large-calibre ones.
		A “salvo-squeezebore” (firing several stacked conical projectiles which were squeezed down to a smaller calibre by a muzzle attachment) was developed for the.50 BMG, but versions which have appeared in 7.62mm NATO appeared to have been made for their novelty value.
