The invention relates to firearms and especially shotguns as well as devices or mechanisms for reducing felt recoil. In particular, the invention relates to a gas-operated device to reduce felt recoil using a recoil suppressing mass, or recoil mass, to create a counter-acting force to the recoil force. The recoil mass moves in response to the gas pressure in the barrel after firing, and more particularly the control of the flow of gas into a chamber to force the recoil mass to move and generate a recoil suppressing force. In one aspect, incorporating the gas-operated device in a firearm can improve the operator's control of the firearm and measurably reduces felt recoil and/or muzzle climb |
