Abstract: The present invention relates to a personal firearm system characterized by the fact that it comprises at least two launch barrels (300, 500) and damper means (400) associated with at least a main barrel (300) and adapted to limit the recoil force generated thereby on firing.

Abstract: A damper device comprising a first and second assembly suitable for guided relative displacement. The first assembly is supported stationarily with respect to a reference. The second assembly is supported for guided relative displacement with respect to the first assembly and the reference. A driving connection connects the second assembly and a system to be damped. A shoe rests against the first assembly and a resilient control that works in buckling is interposed between the shoe and the second assembly. The resilient control exerts a force on the shoe tending to urge the shoe against the first assembly during an active stage of damper device loading, corresponding to relative displacement in a first direction between the first and second assemblies and to reduce the force exerted by the shoe during a passive stage of damper device loading corresponding to relative displacement in a second direction between the first and second assemblies.

Abstract: A pyrotechnic device for launching at least one projectile includes, in a longitudinal launcher tube closed at the rear by a rear wall, a closure member expelled when subjected to a longitudinal force exceeding a predetermined threshold and retaining at least one projectile on opposite sides of which are a front chamber and a rear chamber in which an impulse cartridge builds up a gas pressure simultaneously. In this way a plurality of projectiles can be fired sequentially by means of a single impulse cartridge.
