DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Drawing Features:

[0008] When the firearm is fired the bullet 5 travels through the firearms barrel 1, in this basic embodiment FIG. 1. the Gas Block Barrel Extension Base 10 of the device is mounted to the provided firearm's barrel muzzle threads this embodiment of the universal custom recoil system will feature a Gas Block Base with a barrel extension 10 with a matching thread pitch on the interior front end of the apparatus, to screw onto provided firearm barrel 1 for a secure connection to firearm barrel 1. In alternative embodiment, the gas block base 10 may feature different types of connections for examples listed but not limited to Sight Post hook, Barrel Clamp, Pins, weld or an embodiment where the Gas Block Base 10 is without a barrel extension 1 (FIG. 3. And FIG. 4) to replace the firearms original gas block or it can be modified from the original gas block to accommodate a universal custom recoil solution.

[0009] Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 The Gas Block Barrel Extension base 10 will include gas ports 3 or pathways where gasses 4 that travel behind the bullet will expand into and go through to the devices Shell Housing Interior volume, where it would push a Counter Weight 7 that use the Firearms Barrel 1 or Gas Block Base Barrel Extension 10 as a Guide Rod, in a direction opposite of firearms action movement to create a counter balance to the Kinect energy from perceived recoil kick. When the Counter weight 7 is pushed to the rearward position of device, a spring 8 between the counter weight 7 and Shell housing's 9 end wall 2, will be compressed as well. While both spring 8 and weight 7 are in a rearward position FIG. 2 from being compressed by gas pressures 4 from the fired bullet 5, The counter weight 7 will expose the gas exhaust ports 6 on housing shell 9 where in this basic embodiment shown are straight through holes and they are located towards the upper right and upper left, in order to direct the gasses upward in efforts to utilize the gas pressure go create a downward thrust and to push the barrel 1 in a downward motion to counter barrel rise, and also exhaust the gases 4 away from the firearms upper center line or line of sight, to avoid heat mirage from blurring the sight for the firearms operator.

[0010] Exhaust ports 6 can be located on the Prismatic shell housing 9 and are featured to direct gas pressure 4 in any direction desired to negate any undesired effects of the firearms recoil. In the embodiment in FIG. 1. they are straight through fixed holes, in alternate embodiments they can be threaded holes, Slotted shaped holes, or provide an opening in any shape or size, for purpose of being a universal custom solution and potentially have the ability to be used and reconfigured for different firearms. If embodiment is utilized with its threaded port holes, then the firearm operator can adjust and tune the pressure and chosen direction of escaping gas by opening or closing each port using a threaded screw to plug or the exhaust ports, to achieve optimum performance from system. If the system is not using a counter weight 7 and spring 8 within its major interior volume 11, then the apparatus can be used as a muzzle brake type device to redirect gas pressure 4 for less recoil and increased accuracy from consecutive shots. The Exhaust ports 6 are features included to let the gas escape, unlike a suppressor that is intended to trap gasses altogether. If firearm user is permitted by law and has required forms from ATF then the user can utilize an embodiment where the intended use of the system will be built to a specification that can have the additional use as a suppressor by closing or plugging all the Threaded exhaust ports 6 closed, and maintain pressure.

[0011] If Utilizing a Suppressor, the gas exhaust port 3 size and the Housing 9 wall thickness will be directly correlated with firearm caliber psi or hand loaded psi. thus will have to be made for the intended use of a suppressor and will correlate with chosen material to construct this device to contain pressure. These suppressor embodiments will be made by manufactures who have special permission to make suppressors. In other embodiments the system will utilize threaded Gas ports 6 and fixed straight through gas ports 6 that do not have the option to be plugged or closed, this will allow the system to have the ability to tune the Threaded gas ports 6, and the guarantee that the gas pressure will escape through the Fixed gas ports 6, So that the intended use of embodied system will not include the option to be a suppressor, in which a suppressor traps all gas pressure and noise by function and the provided embodiment would always release gas. Any combination of these features stated or not stated will be claimed as part of this system for purpose of being a universal custom solution and potentially have the ability to be used and reconfigured for different firearms.

[0012] Referring to an embodiment where the gas block base 10 has no barrel extension. After the bullet 5 is fired and gases 4 enter the Gas Block base 10, the bullet 5 will continue to travel through and out the barrel 1 or gas block base barrel extension 10 providing the back pressure behind the bullet 5 required to cycle both the firearm and the Universal Recoil System. The gas pressure 4 will flow into the firearms action and onto the face of the counter weight 7. The Counter Weight 7 feature can be made in any prismatic, or cylindrical shape or size so that it would have more or less mass and is used in combination with the spring feature 8 to provide a counter balance to kinetic energy and motion generated from the firearms recoil. This is to achieve an optimal spring to weight ratio for the purpose of the universal custom solution to counter acting the firearms recoil while still being able to have enough gas pressure 4 to cycle fire arm. Once gas pressure 4 pushes the weight 7 and spring 8 in opposite direction of actions movement then the weight 7 will expose exhaust ports 6 to redirect gas 4, the combination of the weight 7 at being moved to the opposite end of the firearm and redirected gas pressure in upward direction to will create an opposite “Forward and Down” movement for the firearm to Counter an “Up and Back” movement associated from recoil and barrel rise when firing a firearm. The counter weight 7 can be a solid ring piece in any prismatic shape or size with an aperture through its longitudinal axis, to slide from one end of the barrel 1 or Barrel Extension to the other in a reciprocating movement, using the barrel 1 or gas block barrel extension 10 as a guide rod. The inner diameter of counter weight 7 can be slightly larger than barrel to promote a smooth movement of weight 7 within the system. Or the weight 7 could utilize the shell housing 9 internal wall as point of contact for the movement within the systems interior volume with lubricant to assist in function. The Counter Weight 7, can also feature grooves or pockets on either end or face of its longitudinal axis to enhance of the system, for example a circular groove can be cut onto face of the Counter Weight 7 to create a pocket between the Gas Block Base 10 Gas ports 3 to increase the gas pressure volume within the System to so that more gas would be available within both the firearm and Universal Custom Recoil system to ensure both operate synergistically as the fire arm completes its firing cycle and the Universal Custom Recoil System counter balances the movement. If a pocket, groove or material is removed on the back end of counter weight 7 it would be to encase the spring or if an annular cutter is used on the rear end of counter weight then the Counter Weight could be seated inside of the spring enabling the weight to impact the end wall of the shell housing before the spring would be overly compressed past the spring specified maximum deflection distance. multiple variances of weights are included for this system for purpose of being a universal custom solution and potentially can be used and reconfigured for different firearms, and the ability to choose to either have the Counter Weight make contact with the End Wall 2 or not can be determined by the spring specification of the spring chosen for the device.

[0013] This design is made to counter multiple aspects of recoil and effectively aid in consecutive accurate follow up shots. Due to included but not limited to different types of firearm platforms, caliber psi, hand loaded ammunition psi, noise level, barrel rise or any other aspect of perceived recoil. This apparatus can be encompassed in multiple different embodiments using alternative variations in parts, shapes, and in multiple combinations but still surround the designs principle as a universal custom recoil solution system for desired effect on recoil.
