Summary
DescriptionMuzzleRise.png |
English: This graphic illustrates the forces and geometry / mechanics / dynamics involved in firearms muzzle rise. Projectile and propellant gases act on barrel along barrel centerline A. Forces are resisted by shooter contact with gun at grips and stock B. Height difference between barrel centerline and average point of contact is height C. Forces A and B operating over moment arm / height C create torque or moment D, which rotates the firearm's muzzle up as illustrated at E. |

This physics image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with
{{vector version available|new image name}} .
It is recommended to name the SVG file “MuzzleRise.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter. |
