麥林手槍與狙擊槍既後座力

麥林是一種子彈的名稱，同時亦是一種槍的名稱。因為麥林子彈火力強大，不是一般槍械可以承受起那種爆炸力。而且麥林子彈亦比一般手槍子彈長，所以就入不到一般手槍。因此麥林子彈，只會用於專用的手槍上，即是麥林手槍。
麥林手槍現時只有左輪，但不要攪錯左輪就是麥林手槍，麥林左輪是比一般左輪槍管長的，所以就好容易分辦到。而以前是有一支用麥林子彈的自動手槍，好似叫automagnum，見過相同在日本漫畫七金鋼中，主角飛葉就是常用客，不過現實就是因為子彈產生的熱力大，槍身容易出現金屬疲勞及故障，所以就沒有多人用而被淘汰了。
至於麥林子彈我多年前打過，感覺真難忘，亦是我的致愛子彈，詳情你可以睇我寫的另一個知識：http://hk.knowledge.yahoo.com/question/?qid=7006121103160。不過要更正的是那個是香港槍會，因為位於屯門而被自己誤記為屯門槍會。
那時打麥林子彈，後座力不很大，就算.44也不很大，而.357就很好用，特點是子彈快，連環射擊射擊好過癮。而.44因為彈頭較重，打起來不那麼爽，不過不是很難控制，比自動手槍還容易控制。自動手槍中以clock系列最難控制，不明會那麼出名，反而麥林就不太多人識。其實clock難控制過麥林，clock雖然後座力不大,不過滑架向後的跳動動作，往往影響子彈彈道，所以打clock不難，是很輕巧的槍，不過要打中目標就難，打不中目標有啥用？我那時打麥林，不論.357定.44．都有成九成中目標，打clock就得四成。不過麥林手槍因為火力勁，每一次射擊就是一次爆炸，所以發出的熱力好大，槍身很熱，打到50發子彈就熱到連扳機都灼熱到燙火指，有時要放下槍來散熱，這些經驗，不是靠看書就知道的。
至於麥林唔用制退器，其實好簡單，因為麥林主要是左輪，左輪擊發子彈後，不像自動手槍的設計，子彈爆發的熱空氣迫入氣槽。而左輪是沒有氣槽的，亦不會用氣動復進。其實左輪的設計很適合麥林子彈，因為爆發後的熱空氣是可以直接向後噴，這股熱空氣就成為抵消子彈後座力的力量，其原理同無後座力大砲的原理，這是麥林子彈不那麼大後座力的原因。不過槍手就要習慣那股火焰灼面的感覺，俊男美女就一定怕得要死，不過習慣了就忘不了那種感覺，好正！
至於狙擊槍，用的是步槍子彈，長51mm，彈藥量多手槍子彈幾倍，後座力當然勁啦。不過不止狙擊槍，其實自動步槍都是和狙擊槍用同等彈藥的子彈，後座力一樣，還要連續射擊，受不了怎行？如果一種子彈設計出來勁到人都用唔到，又可以俾那人用？就只有好似automagum一樣，勁就勁，無人用就只會淘汰。而步槍現時的彈藥沒被淘汰，就表示人是用得到的，那麼又怎會勁到成個人彈起呢？

It is not quite fair to compare the recoil between a rifle and a handgun. Normally a rifle cartridge projects the bullets with a much greater engery than a handgun cartridge. As a result, the rifle also produce a much greater total recoil force. It is just simple physics. For example, the muzzle energy of some common handgun and rifle cartridges are as follow:

.38 special (296J)
9x19mm (543J)
.357 magnum (728J)
.44 magnum (1360J)
5.56x45mm (1798J)
7.62x39mm (1991J)
7.62x51mm (2890J)
7.62x63mm (3261J)

The numbers may vary a little, depending on the weight of the bullet, amount of gun powder, lenght of the gun barrel and other factors.

Although the absolute recoil engery may be greater on a rifle, a hand gun is much harder to control and shoot accurately. Therefore, you may feel the recoil to be greater than it really is. There are a few reasons.

- Rifles are heavier. Physical law dictats, the heavier the object, the smaller the counter reaction.
- Rifles are longer, the muzzle flip is smaller.
- You hold the rifle with two hands apart and also back it with your shoulder. They forms a three point rigid support for the gun. While shooting a handgun, all the recoil force will be on your wrist, which is much weaker than the three point support on a long gun.

In conclusion, I will say a sniper rifle would probably produce a larger recoil, but a magnum hand gun is harder to control and shoot accurately.

I shoot a 9x19mm handgun and a 30-06 (7.62x63mm) hunting rifle quite often. I can tell you that, the 30-06 rifle hurts a lot more and put bruises on my shoulder all the time. But it is still very easy to hit a target with the rifle at 100yards. While with the handgun, I can barely hit anything consistently beyond 25.
