A gun system comprising a recoiling cannon portion, a stationary carriage portion, and a campath and cam follower mechanism for movably mounting the cannon portion on the carriage portion for travel along a curvilinear path. The path has two stages, a curved first stage which accelerates the cannon assembly upwards and a second stage which decelerates the cannon assembly's upward motion, and which is either straight or curved in either the same or the opposite direction as the first stage, or some combination of these, as necessary. The second stage, if curved in the same direction as the first, has a shallower curve than the first stage. The first stage has a decreasing radius of curvature in the direction of travel (i.e. recoil) of the cannon portion. The campath mechanism can be fixedly mounted on the cannon portion, with the cam follower mechanism fixedly mounted on the carriage portion, or the campath mechanism can be fixedly mounted on the carriage portion with the cam follower mechanism being fixedly mounted on the cannon portion.
