Abstract
775,703. Recoilless guns. MANCAR-TRUST REG. Dec. 28, 1954 [Dec. 28, 1953], No. 37486/54. Class 92. A recoilless gun has a plurality of rearwardly projecting nozzles 4 through which the powder gases are ejected from the barrel via gas outlet barrel slots 12 adjacent the cartridge chamber and an ante-chamber 18 in a housing 2, each nozzle comprising two separable parts 20, 4a, the part 20 consisting of an exchangeable nozzle insert having the narrowest critical cross-sectional area and the part 4a comprising the outwardly flaring portion of the nozzle. The part 4a is screw-threaded into the housing 2 and the part 20 is clamped between abutments 23 and 26 on the part 4a and housing 2. The part 20 may be made of soft iron, e.g. Armco-iron. In its loaded position the tail 10 of the projectile 9 covers the slots 12 and the driving band 13 of the projectile abuts against the barrel taper 14 at the start of the rifling 15, the slots 12 being located immediately behind the rifling and therefore behind the driving band.
