Ammunition storage and feeding system for light weapons that facilitates a continuous loading of the weapon, thereby relieving the user from multiple magazine replacements, and reducing potential weapon stoppages, thus providing more reliable and significantly uninterruptable use of the weapon with respect to operating the weapon with conventional magazines. According to an embodiment of the invention, the system is configured to automatically receive interlinked cartridges from a carrying device (e.g., a backpack or other convenient device harnessed to the user's body) through a flexible or semi-flexible leading means, to successively extract the cartridges from the linking arrangement and to successively feed each extracted cartridge into a dedicated magazine in a First In First Out (FIFO) manner.

A magazine dispenser for loading a magazine into a gun having an opening to receive and hold at least one magazine through an opening. Once at least one magazine is inserted, a flange of the magazine is received in a track provided by a slot region in the magazine dispenser. The magazine then rests on a retention bar disposed in the track which may impede the magazine from being dispensed or support the magazine to be dispensed from the magazine dispenser depending on circumstances.

A one hand firearm magazine loader for loading a firearm with a firearm magazine including a lower member includes a magazine support housing that terminates in a lower end in a receiving section; a firearm magazine support extending from the magazine support housing to retain the firearm magazine in a substantially vertical position; a rotating support rotatably received in the receiving section for rotation about a first axis between the substantially vertical position and an angled position; and a magazine receiving member carried by the rotating support, the magazine receiving member receiving the lower member of the firearm magazine, wherein the magazine receiving member is rotatably mounted to the rotating support for rotation about a second axis, substantially perpendicular to the first axis, of the firearm magazine with mounted firearm.

A carrier for storing an object is provided. The carrier includes four walls that define an interior cavity, a top-closure operative to selectively restrict access to the interior cavity, and a break-away seal. The top-closure is defined by a top panel, a center panel, a bottom panel, and two side panels. The bottom panel is fastened to the center panel so as to define two spaces between the bottom panel and the center panel. The break-away seal is operative to secure the top-closure when the top panel, center panel, bottom panel, and side panels are folded over the interior cavity with the side panels in the spaces defined by the center panel and the bottom panel.

A bullet-resistant transit case includes a casing with inner sidewalls, a rack frame suspended within the casing by a mounting device, and plurality of ballistic panels attached to respective inner sidewalls of the casing by a support device. Adjacent inner sidewalls form inner side edges. The mounting device engages the rack frame from these inner side edges. The supporting device cooperates with the rack frame and mounting device for holding the ballistic panels in place. The supporting device can be brackets with a base portion connecting to the inner side edges and limb attached to adjacent ballistic panels. A end lid and an opposite end lid, with a respective end ballistic panel and opposite end ballistic panel, can be included for a sealed inner volume with bullet-resistant properties within the transit case.

Ammunition containers incorporate an advanced sealing/latching arrangement as well as a lightning mitigation scheme that exhibits a number of advantageous features. A cover assembly is provided that separates the latching functionality from the sealing functionality such that the latching assembly is rotateably engaged and the cover seal is provided via radial (rather than axial) compression of an annular sealing component. In addition, a novel lightning mitigation system also functions as a convenient method of grasping and transporting the containers.

An embodiment of a container may include a cap and a body. The body may include a bottom and body walls extending from the bottom from proximal ends of the body walls to distal ends of the body walls. The body walls may have a channel disposed within the body walls and proximate the distal ends of the body walls. The channel may have a floor, an opening proximate the distal ends of the body walls, an inner wall including an upper inner rim disposed a first distance from the bottom of the body, and an outer wall including an upper outer rim disposed a second distance from the bottom of the body. The second distance may be greater than the first distance relative to the bottom of the body. The channel may be sized to receive a portion of the cap when the container is in a closed position.
