Just come across this interesting slow mo of a Sherman firing its gun (and a RU 152mm)
At full speed you hardly see the gun recoil.

Re: Gun fire slow mo
Interesting find! Love the shockwave shots. Interesting to see a 152mm artillery shell being deflected by only four melons
Who needs sandbags, or Chobham?
All you need is- a melon! (apologies to the Beatles). The video following this one, where Gav and Dan drive an Easy 8, is also worth a wee watch.

Re: Gun fire slow mo
Crazy, would have never thought the a shell would wobble like that. Maybe the sermon barrel had some issues?
