The soft recoil mechanism was an effective mechanism for reducing the recoil force by forwarding momentum. There were some parameters such as the fire angle, firing position, and initial pressure of the recuperator, which influenced the forwarding momentum. These parameters affected the generation of the forwarding momentum in the soft recoil mechanism. To design for the mechanism, the parameters affecting momentum were studied to consider some reasonable conditions. Among the various parameters, the initial pressure of the recuperator and firing position was confirmed as a key factor to have affected the momentum. It was determined that the recoil force had a minimum value when the initial pressure of the recuperator was 180.
