Abstract
A guide system for the longitudinal recoil movement of a cannon has a pair of guide units spaced apart along the cannon barrel and each having a plurality of rollers angularly spaced about the barrel. At least one roller is elastically biased against the barrel while other rollers of the units are radially fixed to provide firm guidance of the barrel without play under all conditions and enabling the yieldable roller to adjust to the increase in barrel size with increasing temperature resulting from firing of the weapon.
