Moving mesh simulation

I am trying to do a simulation of railgun using comsol. Railgun is like an EM launcher setup where an object(armature) is accelerated between two parallel conductors by EM force. There is a tutorial available for this model in the model library of version 3.5 under AC/DC module. But the technique they have used in the tutorial is different from a moving mesh. They have not considered an actual moving armature but rather the conductivity of the volume representing the armature is changed for every time step. It made me wonder whether using moving mesh to simulate this model is possible in comsol? I specifically need to use the moving mesh module to actually move the armature and study the physics.
I am new to comsol. My question: Is it possible to do such type of moving mesh simulation using comsol?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thank you
