👉 A return weapon, also known as a return fire or recoil weapon, is a type of firearm designed to fire its own ammunition upon discharging a projectile. This mechanism involves the weapon's barrel expanding during firing to expel the bullet, which then triggers a spring or other mechanism to recoil, often causing the weapon to fire back at the shooter. Return weapons are commonly used in military and law enforcement applications due to their ability to provide rapid self-defense and retaliatory capabilities, though they also raise significant concerns regarding safety and the potential for unintended harm.
