A shotgun has right and left magazines from which ammunition may be fed to the action using a selector mounted on a movable fore-end chassis whose motion cycles the action. An interrupter prevents the selector from switching between magazines unless the action is in battery with the fore-end chassis fully forward toward the muzzle end of the shotgun. Respective right and left outer cut-offs on the magazines cooperate with an inner cut-off to ensure proper coordination of ammunition feed as the action is cycled by motion of the fore-end chassis. The outer cut-offs are also manually operable to permit removal of ammunition from the magazines without cycling the action.

A firearm having reduced muzzle rise is disclosed. The firearm includes a barrel having a breech end, an opposing muzzle end, and a bore defining a barrel centerline which, when extended in a longitudinal direction, defines a barrel axis. The firearm further includes a magazine tube disposed above the barrel, a receiver defining a lower opening to receive the barrel, and an upper opening to receive the magazine tube. The firearm further includes a stock defining a body support surface where the stock braces against a user's body. The barrel axis passes through the body support surface of the stock.

Fire control mechanisms for a firearm include a trigger disconnect assembly and an action lock mechanism which work together to ensure safe and reliable firearm operation. The trigger disconnect uses a spring biased disconnector pivotably mounted on the trigger to actuate the sear and release a hammer sear upon firing. The hammer sear engages a compliant interface formed by a spring which actuates the action lock to unlock the bolt after the trigger has been pulled.

A bullpup rifle, which has models existing in the art operating individually in pump-action, semi-automatic and automatic systems in the defense industry and the hunting weapon sector, having a barrel, in which the ammunition/cartridge are fired, the barrel having at least one gas discharge hole. A gas system is provided to convert the semi-automatic and automatic rifles to manual (pump-action) and/or pump-action system of the rifle to semi-automatic and automatic system, through opening and closing the gas discharge hole feeding the gas chamber on the barrel by clockwise and/or counterclockwise movement of the gas chamber located on and surrounding the barrel, allowing automatic and/or semi-automatic shooting in the open position of the gas discharge hole and manual (pump-action) shooting in the closed position.

A toy gun (10) with a foregrip includes a gun body (1) having a barrel (11), a gas chamber (12) and a magazine (13); an air valve assembly (3) closing the gas chamber (12); a linkage bar assembly (4) having a trigger bar (41) driving the air valve assembly (3) to open gas chamber (12), a bar dial (42) and a return spring (43) between the gun body (1) and the bar dial (32); a trigger assembly (5) having a trigger member (51) with one end abutted the trigger bar (41) and another end pressed or released from the bar dial (42); and a dialing structure (6) having one end with a foregrip (61) moving horizontally relative to barrel (11) and another end with a link member (62) driving the feed assembly (2) to close or open magazine (13) and pressing or releasing trigger bar (41) and bar dial (42).

A charger for a firearm comprises a body, a movable internal diverter and an advancing member. The body has at least first and second cartridge holding areas that are arranged parallel to each other and are configured to receive and store cartridges in an end-to-end orientation. A first end of the body has a cartridge opening through which cartridges can be loaded into and unloaded from the charger and a receiver insert shaped to fit into a receiver of the firearm. The movable internal diverter is positioned in the body and extends at least partway between the first and second cartridge holding areas to separate the first and second cartridge holding areas from each other. The advancing member is accessible from an exterior of the body and has an engaging member extending within the body and configured to contact a cartridge in one of the first and second cartridge holding areas. The advancing member is movable toward the first end in an advancement direction to urge cartridges from a selected one of the first and second cartridge holding areas and out of the cartridge opening, and in a reverse direction toward a second end of the body to withdraw the engaging member and move the internal diverter so that the engaging member is aligned with the other of the first and second holding areas.
