Why a gun man get a jerk on firing a bullet?
Recoil from the explosion of the charge.
Why a gunman jerk in backward direction while firing gun?
The backward jerk experienced by a gunman while firing a gun is due to the recoil force generated when the bullet is expelled from the barrel. This force is a physical reaction to Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The recoil force pushes the firearm and the gunman in the opposite direction of the bullet's trajectory.
Why does a gun man get a jerk on firing a bullet?
It's Newton's law that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. The bullet goes away from the person firing. It has a very small mass but a very high speed. The opposite reaction is the gun moving backwards, but since its mass is much higher than the bullet, its speed in much lower.
What hits the primer of a cartridge and initiates firing the bullet?
Firing Pin
What is the total momentum of the bullet and the gun before firing?
The total momentum of the bullet and the gun before firing is zero, as the gun and the bullet are at rest. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity, and since both the gun and the bullet are not moving, their momentum is zero.

The term "magic bullet" refers to the bullet found on the gurney that JFK was on when he died. It was next to his head. It just seemed to appear and for the conspiracy types it proves there was another gunman other than Oswald.
How do you determine what gun a bullet was shot from?
You compare the rifling marks on the bullet to the rifling in the barrel. You can also compare the firing pin mark on the primer to the firing pin on the gun.
How do guns fire?
Most of the time there is a firing pin, which hits the back of a bullet when the trigger is pulled. The firing pin hits the back of the bullet and ignites the gunpowder inside of the bullet. The bullet then becomes a small unguided rocket and hits something in the direction the gun was aimed at.
How does a firing pin enable a gun?
Firing pin is what strikes the back end of bullet igniting propellant
What is the total momentum of the bullet and the gun after firing?
Exactly the same as whatever it was before firing. If the loaded gun was not movingbefore the trigger was pulled, then the total momentum of the gun and bullet afterfiring add up to zero.
What killed president Lincoln?

How far is the firing distance range of Beretta caliber 9mm bullet?
