The effects of recoil
The effects of
recoil can be seen in this sequence of 16 photographs each taken 1/30th of a
second apart. Starting from just before the hammer fell, until just under a half
of a second later, after the shot has been fired and the gun recoiled and risen
to the maximum of its travel. The revolver used is a .44 calibre black powder
reproduction Rogers & Spencer and as can be seen the muzzle flash is of quite short
duration: see this sequence
in motion.
