[QUOTE="toddc, post: 1272518, member: 4566"] Cant find that article. However did find some pretty cool physics boards and it does turn out that adding resistance into the recoil of the firearm WILL AFFECT VELOCITY. Adding mass to the gun or mass to the shooter or placing the gun against a large object will in fact increase the muzzle velocity or if recoil mass is removed decrease muzzle velocity. They used placing the gun against the ground as an example and even went so far as to say that the recoil would move the earth which is what the equation would show. [/QUOTE]
