Abstract:
1. A recoil control device for use in a firearm, said device comprising: a bolt head configured to alternate between a forward position and a rearward position in response to the percussion of one or more cartridges; and a slider connected to the bolt head and positioned rearward of the bolt head, the slider comprising an oblique slot with a first sloped portion and a second sloped portion, wherein a surface of the bolt head first contacts the first sloped portion and then the second sloped portion when the bolt head moves from a forward to a rearward position; wherein the bolt head is configured to transmit an impulse to the slider as it alternates between the forward position and the rearward position, the impulse having a component perpendicular to the firing axis of the barrel of the firearm, and wherein the bolt head tilts out of the axis of the firearm barrel at a rearward position, the bolt head comprising a spindle which articulates the bolt head with the slider, the recoil control device further comprising a breech casing comprising a guidance ramp in the form of a groove adapted to accommodate the extremities of the spindle, the guidance ramp being further arranged so that at least the initial backwards movement of the bolt head from the forward position occurs substantially along the axis of the gun barrel, and a slider guide arranged to guide the slider in a movement of translation oblique in relation to the axis of the gun barrel.
