A device for ejecting shells and/or connectors from at least one chain or strip of ammunition associated with a primary and/or secondary weapon, the device being mounted in an armored vehicle turret, includes: a plurality of geometrically and mechanically defined structural elements, for guiding, after shooting the ammunition, a movement of the shells and/or connectors from an inside toward an outside of the turret, along a determined path; and a vibration device for vibrating at least part of the structural elements to favor the movement of the shells and/or connectors. The structural elements include at least one chute. The vibration device includes a motor placed in any location of the chute. The motor includes an unbalancing mass. The motor is actuatable only during shooting.

A cap that is intended to obturate a duct for ejecting cartridges of a turret. This cap includes a circular base that is intended to allow it to be fastened to the duct, and a body shell having a spherical dome profile including a concave face and a convex face, the body shell being divided into at least four sectors by radial slits that are regularly distributed angularly, the sectors being contiguous pairwise. Another subject of the invention is a turret including a duct for ejecting cartridges equipped with such a cap.

The present invention generally relates to a firearm shell casing receiver. The invention generally comprises of a horseshoe shaped member with widened ends and an arm member that serves as a clip to allow for the attachment of a receiver vesicle. To utilize the current invention, the shell casing receiver securely grips onto a firearm's platform whereas the clip portion holds a receiver vesicle to capture any spent ammunition.
