Designed and filed a patent on a unique, first-of-its-kind gas-operated recoilless rifle cartridge case ejector. The system has multiple modes of operation, including fully automatic, semi-automatic, manual mode, and auto/manual locking modes. A working model was 3D printed to study the mechanism. I visited a facility where an 84mm recoilless rifle was manufactured and spent 2 hours studying its workings.
GORRCCE has a unique mechanism that is a combination of different sets of mechanisms combined efficiently to achieve a wide variety of actions with little or no input from the user. It was designed after referring to a wide variety of existing mechanisms and making minor or major changes to them.
A new design GORRCCE-GL with a 60% reduction in size and fewer parts is being designed.

GORRCCE features and operations
A simple rotation of the selector placed on the venturi by the user will shift the system from fully auto to semi-auto mode.
Even though the selector is not directly coupled to the GORRCCE, it automatically detects the blockage, and the mechanisms perform accordingly.
Fully-auto mode
Semi-auto mode
