ABSTRACT:
A recoil reducer (70) attachable to the muzzle end of a rifle (71), handgun (73, 75), or shotgun to reduce the recoil force produced when the weapon is discharged. An elongate, hollow recoil tube (74, 102) attaches either directly to the muzzle (recoil tube 102) or with an adapter tube (72). The recoil tube has a uniform inner diameter along its length which at least corresponds to the bore of the weapon. The recoil reducer tube has a plurality of slots (90) extending longitudinally of the recoil reducer tube and spaced circumferentially thereabout. Outwardly extending gas deflectors (94) are formed at one end of the recoil reducer tube for discharge gases expelled through the slots to impact curved rear walls (98) of the deflectors. The discharge gasses are directed rearwardly by the deflectors to reduce the weapon's recoil.
