Abstract

A recoil management system.

Claims (15)

1. A recoil management system comprising:

(a) an elongate body that defines a pair of inclined surfaces on opposing sides of said elongate body suitable to be detachably engaged with a release mechanism;

(b) an upper mechanism supported by said elongate body such that said upper mechanism is suitable to be detachably engaged to a pair of inclined surfaces supported by a firearm;

(c) a recoil suppression structure operably interconnected between said elongate body and said upper mechanism constraining a recoil of said firearm in a first direction parallel and in-line with a primary recoil direction of said firearm while constraining said recoil of said firearm in all other directions than said first direction;

(d) said recoil suppression structure includes a dampening structure to reduce said recoil of said firearm in said first direction while said upper mechanism is slidably engaged with respect to said elongate body.

2. The recoil management system of claim 1 wherein said recoil suppression structure includes an elongate first member.

3. The recoil management system of claim 2 wherein said recoil suppression structure includes a second member that is movably engaged with said first member.

4. The recoil management system of claim 3 wherein said first member slides with respect to said second member in response to discharge of said firearm when said firearm is engaged with said upper release mechanism.

5. The recoil management system of claim 3 wherein said first member and said second member both slide with respect to said elongate body in response to discharge of said firearm when said firearm is engaged with said upper release mechanism.

6. The recoil management system of claim 3 wherein said first member and said second member are both connected to an upper portion of said elongate body, where said upper portion of said elongate body slides with respect to said first member in response to discharge of said firearm when said firearm is engaged with said upper release mechanism.

7. The recoil management system of claim 3 wherein said first member is connected to an upper portion of said elongate body, where said upper portion of said elongate body slides with respect to said first member in response to discharge of said firearm when said firearm is engaged with said upper release mechanism.

8. The recoil management system of claim 3 wherein said first member and said second member are maintained in a spaced apart relationship with respect to one another by an upper portion of said elongate body, where said upper portion of said elongate body slides with respect to said first member in response to discharge of said firearm when said firearm is engaged with said upper release mechanism.

9. The recoil management system of claim 3 wherein said first member and said second member are maintained in a consistent spaced apart relationship with respect to one another by an upper portion of said elongate body while said upper portion of said elongate body slides with respect to said first member in response to discharge of said firearm when said firearm is engaged with said upper release mechanism.

10. The recoil management system of claim 3 wherein said upper release mechanism is maintained in a consistent spaced relationship with respect to said first member and said second member while a top of said elongate body said slides with respect to said first member.

11. The recoil management system of claim 3 wherein said upper release mechanism is maintained in a consistent spaced relationship with respect to said first member while an upper portion of said elongate body slides with respect to said first member.
