    That is incorrect. Repeaters existed. Organ guns existed. Early semi-automatics in the form of air guns existed. And we know the founding fathers were aware of them. Pretty much none of these were mass produced however due to practical concerns or reliability issues.

    Many concepts were also actively being debated as far as gun development went, but there simply wasn't the technical knowhow yet in order to do it. You can bet your life savings that it wouldn't requires more than 3 seconds to explain the concept of a cardridge to someone from 1700's because the concept itself was self evident, logical, and the expected next development, but metallurgy and chemistry hadn't yet caught up to meet this desire

    Read an opinion from a guy who claimed that the biggest problem with inline recoil, or rather the height over it results in, is that you need to raise your head higher to shoot above cover, meaning you're more likely to get shot.

      Realistically the height over bore difference between an AR and an AK with irons is only like .6”. If you’re willing to deviate from a 2022 Russian Army clone build and put an optic on your AK, it pretty much disappears.

      I guess if you’re a big boomer you could run an M14 with iron sights and then you might see a noticeable difference.

    I love how the left just switches gears, making shit up to suit the current argument. The original meme used to be that white neighborhoods were overpoliced because police only cared about protecting whites. Now the left meme changed somehow? Also, studies show crime goes less reported in black neighborhoods because of the whole “no snitching” culture

      The issue they always fail to acknowledge is WHY the highly policed areas are "overpoliced," which is the fact that there is more violent crime there. Yeah, more black and latin people probably do get clipped for drug possession than white people disproportionate to the rate of usage, but that's a side effect of the police being in the neighborhood trying to catch murderers and drive by shooters. Why the frick would they be wasting time and gas patrolling up and down the block in peaceful suburbs where nobody is calling them? White neighborhoods that happen to have high violent crime rates are going to get higher police presence too. It's how the frick policing works.

        True. Racially focused suburbanites created this narrative that blacks neighborhoods are uniquely focused on by cops more than white neighborhoods when
        1) police presence compared to crime rate shows there are more police presence per crime in wealthy neighborhoods compared to poor neighborhoods. That’s just the nature of the inverse squared law though, it doesn’t scale evenly.
        2) poor white trash neigborhiods in the Deep South see the same police presence as poor black neighborhoods

            If you have to ask why someone would need AP ammo they’re zero explanations that would be convincing for you. This is a difference in perspective and ideology at the end of the day, and the mere question indicates your inability to see it from his point of view. Perhaps start examining your internal biases and figure out why.

          Fy in your drawing does not exist. If it did, it would mean that force F is greater than the force of the gun firing.

          If you really want to get into it, Fz imparts torque around the center of gravity and causes the barrel to rise, which is what the straight line recoil was supposed to prevent.

          • 1 year ago

            I don't undestand what you're saying.
            If, as you say, Fx = F + Fz
            then
            => Fx = (Fx + Fy + Fz) + Fz
            => Fx = Fx + Fy +2Fz
            Which make absolutely no sense.

            In my drawing, the XY plane is defined by the long-wise cross-section of the stock. This means that there are only X and Y components to the force F, since the force acts only inside this plane.

            >Fz imparts torque around the center of gravity and causes the barrel to rise
            How could a moment M(Fz) cause a clockwise rotation in XY plane? It's literally impossible, as far as I know.

              The “z” in “Fz” doesn’t indicate a force in the third dimension; it’s just a follow on term after “y” since the dude who posted the first vector pic fricked up his vectors. “Fy” doesn’t exist. The vectors are simply:

              You are treating the X/Y plane, in your description and in the context of the picture you posted, as of it was based on being level with the earth. This would imply that the recoil is completely dependent on the angle at which the shooter is pointing the weapon.

              Since a force vector can be described by the sun of two perpendicular vectors, in your drawing, the force traveling down the but stick to the shooter’s shoulder is greater than the force of the bullet itself, which violates Newton’s third law. The equal-but-opposite force (blue) travels exactly in the opposite of the bullet (white). The blue force can then be described by two perpendicular vectors:
              1). The force traveling down the but stick to the shoulder, and
              2). The moment generating force, which causes the barrel to rise

                Ok, I get it now.
                You're saying that the recoil force is the blue force (in your drawing), which is parallel to the ground the soldier is standing on.
                In my drawing, the recoil force is the dark blue one. This force does have X and Y components (the XY plane cuts through the length of the stock).

              • 1 year ago
                Anonymous

                Right. The recoil is just the equal-but-opposite force to that acting upon the bullet. (Blue in my drawing, Fx in yours). In my drawing, it appears parallel to the ground, but that is only because the shooter is shooting parallel to the ground. Blue would be a vector that is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force of the bullet traveling down the barrel, so if the shooter was pointing straight up, the blue counterforce would be straight down.

                The recoil can then be broken into two perpendicular vectors whose sum equals blue/Fx. One part is the force imparted directly upon the shooter via the buttstock (purple in my drawing, “F” in your drawing). The moment generating force can then be solved as SIN(sigma)*-(F_bullet), where sigma is the angle between blue and purple in my drawing.

                In your drawing, Fy comes out of nowhere. (It could be viewed as the force of gravity, but that is counteracted by the shooter holding the rifle up, so it doesn’t factor in). This means that either (i) your force Fx is not equal to the force of the bullet, or, if it is, (ii) F is greater than the force of the bullet. Both cases are inconsistent with Newton’s third law.

            If you really want to get into it, Fz imparts torque around the center of gravity and causes the barrel to rise, which is what the straight line recoil was supposed to prevent.

            According to vector sums,
            >Force Blue = Force Purple + Force Yellow
            Force Purple is the recoil passed into the shooter
            Force Yellow is the imparted muzzle rise

              Force yellow is literally just the moment caused by force purple. It's not the Y component of force purple (which is the recoil).

          Damn, I've got to give you props for the effort of actually drawing a free body diagram.
          Anyway, here's my take on it, having done a good few of these for my degree, not that this is done to that standard.

          My diagram is essentially a precursor to yours, if you resolve out the forces, the orange force is equivalent to the F in your diagram.

              Sorry, my handwriting is absolutely atrocious.
              Yes, those are lowercase f with numerical subscripts. They represent forces applied by the shooter onto the gun, excluding those acting through direct contact with the shoulder.

                But the rifle is in stasis the moment before the charge ignited, so every force must be being counteracted at the time of shooting. So the hand is not applying a counterforce that reduces recoil. And even if it did, you’re not accounting for the transfer of that force through the arm to the shoulder, which is where the rest of the force is being countered.

                I wrote a whole rambling reply that got way the frick off topic, so I'm going to try again, going back to the OP.

                AR fans: muh straight line recoil!
                Soldiers:

                the principle comment being made is that the soldier will not experience "straight-line recoil" because of the way he is holding it.
                This is true. That form will result in a felt force that will need to be compensated for by arm strength if you want to avoid muzzle-flip i.e. rotation of the gun.
                I misunderstood the post I was initially responding to, because, like a dumbass, I posted without reading the whole thread, and I can say that he was wrong, there is no Y component to the recoil, and so it doesn't cancel out and invalidate the OP's point.

                Then your post, asking me to clarify my admittedly garbage diagram,

                Wtf is this? What is f1? Or for that matter any of the other forces you marked

                . I have not helped myself here. My diagram only shows forces in the torso, which does not grant the full picture of recoil absorption in the human body.

                And finally, your current post . The rifle is in stasis before the charge ignites, but this does not mean it won't move after. The gun pushes the bullet out of the barrel, and this has to have an equal and opposite momentum transfer into the gun. Thankfully, the gun is heavier, so it moves much slower than the bullet, but it's still in contact with the hands and shoulder, both of which resist its backward movement.
                This decreases the rearward momentum of the gun over time, and momentum changing over time requires a force to cause it, the force of the shoulder and hands resisting it.
                You are totally correct that the hands merely transfer force into the shoulder, and it was foolish of me to miss that, so the hands are only really compensating for muzzle-flip.
                Anyway the rest of the recoil dissipation is just leaning into the recoil, to be reductionist. Obviously you can't just put your full weight into it, but you can perform subtle balance and weight shifting that means that the recoil ends up transferred through your feet, into the Earth.

    have you never shot an ar before

    Unless you’re in a city, or a fighting emplacement. You should be doing almost all of your shooting from the prone. That was even more emphasized when the AR was designed. If you’ll notice, being prone, undoes what you’re talking about.

    You dumb fricking Black folk there is no recoil force perpendicular to the recoil axis, that's the whole point. The fact that the recoil axis is above the shooter's shoulder contact point generates a moment which rotates the barrel upward. There is no up/down recoil force, only the moment caused by the shooter not putting the recoil axis inline with their shoulder contact point.
