A bolt action rifle having a receiver; a bolt in slidable communication within said receiver, having an elongated body and a bolt head at a first end, and an exposed bolt face with a primer recess cavity having a base with a forward-facing surface, the base having an aperture therein, where the aperture is circumscribed by the forward-facing surface for receiving a propellant charge having an extended primer cap, and a firing pin within the bolt and movable between a disengaged position wherein a firing pin head is receded within the aperture and an engaged position wherein the firing pin head extends beyond the forward-facing surface into the primer recess cavity.

A launcher device for launching a 40 mm projectile (i.e., both high explosive grenades and less lethal 40 mm rounds) includes a receiver assembly, a removable buttstock, a pivoting barrel assembly, a barrel stop that limits opening of the barrel to approximately 45 degrees relative to the receiver for fast reloading, and an auto ejection assembly for ejecting spent casings out of the chamber upon opening the barrel. Individual 40 mm rounds are loaded into the chamber at the proximal end of the barrel assembly by releasing a barrel stop lever assembly and pivoting the barrel assembly open relative to the receiver assembly. The launcher further includes a hidden double action trigger group which prevents accidental firing. An arrangement of built-in picatinny rails on the barrel allow for attachment of accessories such as lights, fore grips, slings, etc.

The light-weight handheld less-lethal ballistic projectile launcher is configured as an over/under double barrel handheld device with a break open loading action. The launcher includes a barrel section pivotally connected to receiver section. The barrel section pivots between an open load/unload position and a closed firing position. The barrel section includes two metal barrel sleeves that are press fit into axial bores formed in the body of the barrel section. The barrel section also includes an ejector, which locks the barrel section in the closed firing position and partially expels spent rounds from the barrel sleeves when the barrel section is opened. The receiver section houses the launcher's fire control mechanism. The fire control mechanism uses a traditional single action operation and ensures that rounds are alternatively discharged from each barrel and prevents rounds from both barrels from being discharged simultaneously.

A safety pin locks a barrel latch while the firearm discharges a round of ammunition. The barrel latch safety locking mechanism is incorporated into the frame and is actuated by the trigger assembly. The barrel latch safety locking mechanism engages the barrel latch to prevent movement during firing keeping the barrel latch engaged with the barrel. The firearm is further comprised of a slide switch that is connected to the barrel latch that allows a user to disengage the barrel latch for loading.
