'''Free recoil''' is a [[vernacular]] term or [[jargon]] for recoil energy of a firearm not supported from behind. Free recoil denotes the translational kinetic energy (''E<sub>t</sub>'') imparted to the shooter of a small arm when discharged and is expressed in [[joule]] (J) and [[Foot-pound (energy)|foot-pound force]] (ft·lb''<sub>f</sub>'') for non-SI units of measure. More generally, the term refers to the [[recoil]] of a free-standing firearm, in contrast to a firearm securely bolted to or braced by a massive mount or wall.
 
Free recoil should not be confused with [[recoil]]. Free recoil is the given name for the [[Kinetic energy#Kinetic energy of rigid bodies|translational kinetic energy]] transmitted from a [[small arm]] to a shooter. Recoil is a name given for [[conservation of momentum]] as it generally applies to an everyday event.
 
Free recoil, sometimes called recoil energy, is a byproduct of the propulsive force from the powder charge held within a [[Chamber (firearms)|firearm chamber]] ([[metallic cartridge]] firearm) or [[breech-loading weapon|breech]] ([[Black powder|black-powder]] firearm). The physical event of free recoil occurs when a powder charge is detonated within a firearm, resulting in the conversion of [[chemical energy]] held within the powder charge into [[thermodynamics|thermodynamic energy]]. This energy is then transferred to the base of the bullet and to the rear of the cartridge or breech, propelling the firearm rearward into the shooter while the projectile is propelled forward down the barrel, with increasing velocity, to the muzzle. The rearward energy of the [[firearm]] can be when calculated is the free recoil and the forward energy of the bullet when calculated and is the [[muzzle energy]].
 
The concept of free recoil comes from the tolerability of gross recoil energy. Trying to figure the net recoil energy of a firearm (also known as [[Recoil#Perception of recoil|felt recoil]]) is a futile endeavor. Even if you can calculate the recoil energy loss due to: [[muzzle brake]]; recoil operated action or gas operated action; mercury recoil suppression tube; recoil reducing butt pad and or hand grip; shooting vest and or gloves, the human factor is not calculable.
 
Therefore, free recoil stands as a scientific [[measurement]] of recoil energy, just as the room or outside [[temperature]] is measured. The comfort level of a shooter’s ability to tolerate free recoil is a personal perception. Just as it is a person's, personal perception of how comfortable he or she feels to room or outside temperature.
 
There are many factors that determine how a shooter will perceive the free recoil of his or her small arm. Some of the factors are, but not limited to: body mass; body frame; experience; shooting position; recoil suppression equipment; small arm fit and or environmental stressors.
 
==Calculating free recoil==
There are several different ways to calculate free recoil. However, the two most common are the [[momentum]] short and long forms.
 
Both forms will yield the same value. The short form uses one equation as where the long form requires two equations. With the long form you will first find for the fire arm velocity. With the ''velocity'' known for the small arm, the free recoil of the small arm can be calculated using the translational kinetic energy equation.
 
* Momentum short form: <math>E_{tgu} = 0.5 \cdot [\tfrac {(m_p \cdot v_p) + (m_c \cdot v_c)}  { 1000 }]^2 / m_{gu}</math>
 
* Momentum long form: <math>v_{gu} = \tfrac {(m_p \cdot v_p) + (m_c \cdot v_c)} {1000 \cdot m_{gu}}</math>  →  <math>E_{tgu} = 0.5 \cdot m_{gu} \cdot v_{gu}^2\,</math>
 
Where as:
 
''E<sub>tgu</sub>'' is the translational kinetic energy of the small arm as expressed by the joule (J).
 
m<sub>gu</sub> is the weight of the small arm expressed in [[kilograms]] (kg).
 
m<sub>p</sub> is the weight of the projectile expressed in [[grams]] (g).
 
m<sub>c</sub> is the weight of the powder charge expressed in grams (g).
 
v<sub>gu</sub> is the velocity of the small arm expressed in [[meters]] per second (m/s).
 
v<sub>p</sub> is the velocity of the projectile expressed in meters per second (m/s).
 
v<sub>c</sub> is the velocity of the powder charge expressed in meters per second (m/s).
 
1000 is the conversion factor to set the equation equal to kilograms.
 
=== An example of calculating free Recoil using SI units===
[[Small arm]]: [[Mauser]] 98 chambered in [[7 x 57 mm Mauser|7 x 57 mm]] weighing 4.54 kilograms (10 pounds).
 
[[Projectile]]: spitzer type weighing 9.1 grams (140 grains) with a [[muzzle velocity]] of 823 meters per second (2700 feet per second).
 
Powder charge: single base [[nitrocellulose]] weighing 2.75 grams (42.5 grains) with a powder charge [[velocity]] of 1585 meters per second (5200 feet per second).
 
The momentum short form:
 
:<math>E_{tgu} = 0.5 \cdot [\tfrac {(m_p \cdot v_p) + (m_c \cdot v_c)} { 1000 } ]^2 / m_{gu}</math>
and with the numaric values in place;
:<math>E_{tgu} = 0.5 \cdot [\tfrac {(9.1 \cdot 823) + (2.75 \cdot 1585)} { 1000 } ]^2 / 4.54 =</math>
 
:<math>E_{tgu} = 0.5 \cdot [\tfrac {(7489.3) + (4358.75)} { 1000 } ]^2 / 4.54 =</math>
 
:<math>E_{tgu} = 0.5 \cdot [\tfrac {11848.05} { 1000 } ]^2 / 4.54 =</math>
 
:<math>E_{tgu} = 0.5 \cdot 11.848^2 / 4.54 = \,</math>
 
:<math>E_{tgu} = 0.5 \cdot 140.367 / 4.54 = \,</math>
 
:<math>E_{tgu} = 70.188 / 4.54 = \,</math>
 
:<math>E_{tgu} = 15.46J \,</math> of free recoil
 
*For non-[[SI]] [[units of measurement|units of measure]] of energy see [[Foot-pound (energy)|Foot-pound force]]. The conversion is: 1 J = 0.737 562 ft·lb<sub>f</sub>
 
===Calculating free Recoil using non-SI units===
 
From the momentum long form in both [[Imperial units]] of measure and in an [[English Engineering Units|English Engineering]] format:
* Momentum long form: <math>v_{gu} = \tfrac {(m_p \cdot v_p) + (m_c \cdot v_c)} {7000} / m_{gu} </math>  →  <math>E_{tgu} = \tfrac {m_{gu} \cdot v_{gu}^2}{2g_c}\,</math>
 
Where as:
 
''E<sub>tgu</sub>'' is the translational kinetic energy of the small arm as expressed by the [[Foot-pound (energy)|foot-pound force]] (ft·lb<sub>f</sub>).
 
''m''<sub>gu</sub> is the weight of the small arm expressed in [[pound (mass)|pounds]] (lb).
 
''m''<sub>p</sub> is the weight of the projectile expressed in [[grain (measure)|grains]] (gr).
 
''m''<sub>c</sub> is the weight of the powder charge expressed in grains (gr).
 
''v''<sub>gu</sub> is the velocity of the small arm expressed in [[Foot (unit of measure)|feet]] per second (ft/s).
 
''v''<sub>p</sub> is the velocity of the projectile expressed in feet per second (ft/s).
 
''v''<sub>c</sub> is the velocity of the powder charge expressed in feet per second (ft/s).
 
''g''<sub>c</sub> is the [[Foot-pound|dimensional constant]] and is the numeral coefficient of 32.1739
 
7000 is the conversion factor to set the equation equal to pounds.
