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.

Which has more kick 9mm .40 .45 ACP?

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.

What is recoil velocity?

When a gun is fired, the projectile goes one way, the gun goes in the opposite direction. That is recoil. Recoil velocity would be the speed at which the gun moves when it recoils. Since the gun is heavier than the projectile, it will recoil more slowly than the projectile moves.


What is a good gun for a woman?

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.
