A tubular shaft is telescopically disposed within the cylinder with its free end attached to the stock grip. A plug is disposed within the cylinder carrying a rod coaxial with the cylinder whose free end is disposed within the tubular shaft. A stack of disc shaped springs are coaxially positioned within the tubular shaft and are circumscribed around the rod, the stack being between the stock grip and the plug and adapted to be compressed upon movement of the shaft into the cylinder upon the firing of the gun.
