Unrelinquished Despair
Well, I want to be a gun enthusiast, I hope he pounds all that information into my head. I think there's a different between Battle Rifles, and Assault Rifles.
Guns, I meant guns. And how do these new weapons deal with the recoil generated by having such larger calibers? Some fancy technology similar to the KRISS Super V?
yes and no. The way most of the Kriss Super V reduces recoil is due to it's design. The Vector's barrel is in line with the shooter's shoulder just like the M16 rifle but also in line with the shooter's hand as with many target pistols. Combined, these factors reduce felt recoil and muzzle climb by eliminating the distance between the shooter's hand and the bore axis along with the action of the Super V Mechanism. So therefore only a few of the sub machine guns could work like that. Currently that'd be the Anthrax and Shredder sub machine guns.
Now about battle rifles. A battle rifle is a service rifle- bolt action, semi auto carbine, or assault rifle that is designed for use in armed conflict. For example here is a list of the top 10 battle rifles according to the military channel:
