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.
Kimber Manufacturing is an American company that designs, manufactures, and distributes small arms such as M1911 pistols, Solo pistols, rifles, and revolvers. The USA Shooting Team , Marines assigned to Special Operations Command , and the LAPD SWAT team [ 1 ] have used Kimber pistols in the past.
The Beretta Cx4 Storm is a pistol-calibre semi-automatic carbine aimed at the sporting, personal defense and law enforcement markets. It was designed to accept magazines from different Beretta pistol platforms ( 92/96 , 8000 "Cougar" series , Px4 ) using adapters.
AR-15 style rifle telescopic stock equipped with a recoil pad. A recoil pad is a piece of rubber, foam, leather, or other soft material usually attached to the buttstock of a rifle or shotgun. Recoil pads may also be worn around the shoulder with straps, placing the soft material between the buttstock and the shoulder of the person firing the gun.
Diagram of recoil mechanism, British 60-pounder gun Mk.I, 1916. The idea of using a water brake to counteract the recoil of naval cannons was first suggested to the British Admiralty by Carl Wilhelm Siemens in early 1870s, but it took about a decade for other people (primarily Josiah Vavasseur) to commercialize the idea.

A later type of a recoil booster designed in 1904 by Trevor Dawson and J. Ramsay of Vickers, Sons & Maxim in 1904 [4] was adopted by the US Army on their Maxim Machine Gun, Caliber .30, Model of 1904, as well as the British on the Vickers machine gun of 1912. At firing, the recoil from the cartridge pushes the barrel and bolt together backwards ...
They then also chose to take the time-proven technology of hydraulic shock absorption from car-manufactures and put it in the gun's stock for up to 44% felt recoil reduction at the shoulder. Beretta also saw the need for the gun to be protected from the elements so as to protect the gun in harsh hunting conditions such as water-fowl hunting ...
Bedding epoxy in a stock. Rifle bedding is a gunsmithing process of providing a rigid and consistent foundation for a rifle’s operational components, by creating a stable and close-fitting bearing surface between the gun's functional parts (i.e. the receiver housing the barrelled action) and its structural support (i.e. the stock) that do not deform with heat, pressure and moisture, or shift ...
