A barreled firearm having a mass-locked breechblock and a recoil-damping element which is connected on one side to a frame assembly and on another side to a barrel assembly including a barrel. A housing part of the barrel assembly is mounted in the frame assembly in an axially slidable manner. A support element stationary relative to the barrel is mounted in a breechblock housing or in the frame assembly in an axially slidable manner. Alternatively, a support element stationary relative to the frame assembly is mounted in a breechblock housing in an axially slidable manner. The breechblock housing is guided by the frame assembly in an axially slidable manner and the breechblock housing is supported by the support element by means of a spring element. This design absorbs or reduces recoil when a shot is fired from the barreled firearm.

A recoil management system.

A recoil management system.

An automated weapon system comprising an active recoil control system, a bi-directional recoil containment and double strike prevention system and a mortar retention system. The active recoil control system uses multiple sensors in combination with a solenoid controlled multi-disc brake to adjust the weapon recoil. Using outputs from the sensors, a controller predicts and reacts to a recoiling mass performance and applies the required braking force, in order to compensate for anticipated or actual variations. Feedback from the sensors allows the active recoil control system to adjust braking during the recoil strokes and counter-recoil strokes in order to optimize the weapon operation and performance in extreme firing conditions.

A remote weapon system (RWS) for an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) includes a dedicated weapon, multi-axis gimbal and ammunition handling capabilities with all operations functioning remotely and wirelessly. The RWS comprises system-level and component-level safety features which preclude the weapon of the remote weapon system from being operable if removed from the remote weapon system.

An adjustable buffer optionally including at least some of a buffer element having an elongate buffer element body portion, wherein the buffer element body portion includes an externally threaded portion; a collar nut having a collar nut aperture formed therethrough, wherein at least a portion of the collar nut aperture is internally threaded so as to interact with the externally threaded portion of the buffer element body portion, and wherein one or more collar nut recesses are formed in the collar nut; and a locking collar having a locking collar aperture formed therethrough, wherein the locking collar aperture is formed so as to accept at least a portion of the buffer element body portion therethrough, wherein the locking collar includes one or more locking collar protrusions, and wherein the one or more locking collar protrusions are mateable with the one or more collar nut recesses.

The subject of the present invention relates to damping of the recoil force as a result of fixing the trigger group to a support point by seating the trigger group in a slot with a pin in order to prevent the recoil force from being transmitted to the user by raising up (ramping) the tip of the barrel with the effect of recoil force after firing.
