A magazine that includes a pre-pack and a gas regulator system, with the pre-pack including a gas canister and non-lethal projectiles in addition to a drive mechanism for introducing non-lethal projectiles into gun chamber.

A launching system for launching light weight articles into air comprising an elongated hollow tube or cannon filled with at least one light weight article such as confetti, a female quick disconnect member, a ball valve, a male extrusion, a reservoir and a source of compressed gas. The female quick disconnect member having at least one cam lock lever at proximal end facilitates quick connection and disconnection of the elongated hollow tube and the distal end of the female quick disconnect member is connected to one end of the ball valve via a male extrusion, further the ball valve having one handle which acts as a trigger. Further top end of the reservoir is connected to other end of the ball valve and a source of compressed gas such as compressed CO2 gas cartridge which is connected to bottom end of the reservoir, wherein the source supplies compressed gas that is stored in the reservoir until the trigger of the ball valve is turned to open position allowing the compressed gas to escape from the reservoir into the elongated hollow tube, thereby launching the light weight articles into the air. The device provides single shot or multiple shots of confetti from the cannon with a single cartridge in a more safe and controlled manner.

A round for a magnetically chambered air gun has a magnetically influenced portion and a non-magnetically responsive portion, as well as an exterior shell and an interior. The interior may be hollow, solid, or filled with liquid. Any part of the invention may be the magnetically responsive portion: the shell, the interior, the solid or liquid core and so on. The round may advantageously be spherical, and may include an actual magnet itself as opposed to merely being magnetically responsive. Magnetic materials may be impregnated into a non-magnetic portion such as a plastic shell. The shell may be of multiple part construction with a snap together design.

The invention relates to a paintball backpack for storing, transporting and/or delivering projectiles to a device for firing the projectiles, comprising a storage container for the projectiles and at least one delivery connection for transporting the projectiles, wherein the paintball backpack comprises a first and at least one second delivery device, wherein the first and the at least one second delivery device are arranged superposed over each other in or on a storage container and are connected to each other by the at least one delivery connection. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for delivering projectiles from a storage container by at least two delivery devices for transferring the projectiles to a device for firing the projectiles.

An automatic pellet loader of a pneumatic air gun, including a pellet clip seat, a pellet clip lid, a pellet clip closure, and a magnetic shaft. The pellet clip seat and the pellet clip lid are connected to form a magazine case that includes a pellet inlet. The pellet clip closure is rotatably connected to the magazine case for opening or closing the pellet inlet. The bottom side wall of the pellet clip seat is provided with a loading sleeve that extends to the pellet clip lid. A center hole of the loading sleeve perpendicularly penetrates through the pellet clip seat. The pellet clip lid includes a loading channel allowing the pull-bolt thimble to pass through. The loading sleeve includes an opening close to an exit side of the loading channel through which a single pellet can slip autonomously into the loading channel.

A high capacity loader for sequentially loading a plurality of projectiles into a launcher. The loader has a first drive core, a second drive core and a load path to maintain the projectiles in a defined path around the first and second drive cores. The second drive core is rotationally connected to the first drive core. An indexing assembly is provided to index the drive cores. A drive assembly provides a rotational force for the drive cores. A magazine extends from the housing to connect the loader to the launcher and to load the projectiles into the launcher. The projectiles are individually indexed on the first and second drive cores and are free from force by adjacent projectiles.

A pre-pack assembly for use with an air gun and for use with a magazine that is removably insertable into the air gun, the pre-pack assembly includes a pre-pack that contains a gas canister, wherein inserting the pre-pack into the chamber of the magazine fluidly connects the gas canister with the magazine.

In an open chamber air gun, a round is gravity fed or magnetically fed into the open chamber and falls into the magnetic flux lines of a magnet disposed at the chamber. Due to the magnet, the round is pulled securely into the chamber and then remains momentarily held in place, blocking much of the air behind it and thus increasing the air pressure driving it. When the round moves down the barrel from the breech toward the muzzle, it quickly leaves the vicinity of the magnet and the magnetic drag ceases, after which the air pressure is free to drive the round to full velocity. High rates of fire and muzzle velocities are achieved with moderate air pressure and an action with no moving parts.
