Firearm having an articulated bolt train with transversally displacing firing mechanism, delay blowback breech opening, and recoil damper

摘要

An improved firearm having an Pivotally Articulated Bolt Train assembly consisting of a series of linked carriages, containing firing mechanisms, placed inside a compact ergonomic jaw articulated receiver, holding all the sub assemblies in the convenient location, synchronizing the movements of all the components, and controlling its alternating motion by displacing along divergent and converging paths and tracks, where the Bolt Train, moving through tracks, displaces to align, entirely horizontally, with the barrel axis, rapidly shifting into a curved and transverse path. Such motion forces the cocking, the partial displacement into a Handle Tunnel, and modifies the bearing of the recoil force, conveying a unique dynamic behavior. When displacing rearwards it generates a dual transient angular momentum vector helping to compensate the “barrel Torque” phenomenon caused by the bullet rifling when fired. The interaction of several components delays the breech opening, decelerating the rearwards motion to assist the recoil damping.
