This might sound like a stupid question.

Some times the most obvious question is the one never asked.

Im a gun owner and I like to target practice and I have some land and a great private place to do it.

I was wondering why the muzzle of a firearm kicks upward and not downwards or left and right?

Everyone knows Im not too bright so I thought I'd ask some like minded people.

Maybe one of you WW2 vets know?

The primary reason for muzzle rise is that for nearly all guns, the bore axis (longitudinal centerline of the barrel) is slightly above the gun's center of mass, while the contact points between the shooter and the gun (e.g. grips and stock) are often all below the center of mass. When the gun is fired, the bullet motion and the escaping propellant gases exert a reactional recoil directly backwards along the bore axis, while the countering forward push from the shooter's hands and body are well below it.
