ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for firing a projectile from a recoilless weapon with a firing barrel open at both of its ends, by means of a propellant charge tamped toward the rear with an inert, pulverulent compensating mass, reduces the noise and the shock waves of the firing. The projectile and the compensating mass are adapted to each other with respect to their mass and the distances to be traversed by each within the firing barrel so that the compensating mass fully vacates the firing barrel only after the projectile vacates the firing barrel.
