Not all guns have a recoil spring. In the case of guns like the 1911A1 .45 cal pistol, when the gun fires, the slide is driven back by recoil (kick). The recoil spring is compressed, stops the slide from moving back, and pushes the slide forward for the next shot. Is does not make the gun recoil less.
It is not possible.
Typically a recoil spring absorbs SOME of the energy from a weapons recoil and also resets the firearm's components (chambering a round, hammer, etc...) to allow the firearm to be shot again.
Semi-automatic firearms, such as the 1911A1 pistol use a spring to help absorb some of the recoil energy, and use the energy to reload the pistol.
Release of a spring from compression Recoil of gun after firing a shot
because the recoil is when the bullet forces the gun back and so the bullet creates the recoil and so it can't make it go just as fast
The metal spring critically dampens the gun barrel so that it can recoil and the compensate for the reaction of the action done by the bullet.
Recoil is the equal and opposite of the force driving the bullet. A heavier gun is a greater mass to be moved by that recoil.
i recoiled when i heard that the spider was still in my room
Generally speaking, the 9mm will have the least recoil of those 3. When comparing 40 to 45, the 40 has a sharper recoil because it is a higher pressure cartridge than the 45, and most people interpret that as heavier recoil. However, all of that is conditional on the size and weight of the gun. When shooting a heavier gun, you will generally feel less recoil than when shooting a comparable gun that is lighter. So a big heavy 45 will have less recoil than a small light 45.
as a VERB: This gun will recoil a lot. or: He recoiled at the awful sight of the wrecked car. as a NOUN: This gun has a lot of recoil. The recoil of a .338 magnum rifle is uncomfortable.
I recommend a 9mm. Glock or Springfield Armory= Most value for your money, largest magazine capacity and lightest recoil. A revolver of any manufacturer is going to have added recoil far less capacity and more time consuming to reload. Revolvers are highly inaccurate as well. A revolver has no spring or slide to absorb any recoil so in turn when you shoot a revolver the gun will jump upwards and it will take you longer to get your target back in your sights.
Depends to some degree on how the cartridge is loaded, and the weight of the gun firing it- heavy guns recoil less. Recoil is similar to a .38 Special- more than a .22, less than a .45. My granddaughter is in her mid teens and shoots my Browning Hi Power 9mm, so recoil is not that bad.
