Patent attributes
A hydraulic recoil device for a handgun or pistol is provided. The device includes a cylinder defining an interior hollow compartment having a first end and a second end. The device further includes a first resilient member; a piston assembly arranged adjacent to the first resilient member and at least partially within the cylinder, where the piston assembly includes a piston head, a piston rod, and a piston cap; a compressible accumulator arranged within the cylinder; and a second resilient member outside of the cylinder. When the piston rod is displaced toward the first end of the cylinder in operation, a hydraulic resistance is generated by the piston assembly, and when a first end of the second resilient member is displaced toward the second end of the cylinder in operation, additional resistance is generated by the second resilient member.
