An automated machine for organizing and feeding cylindrical products includes a conveyor to space apart the cylindrical products. A pair of elongated rollers is disposed downstream from the conveyor to orient the cylindrical products in the same direction. A miter wheel disposed downstream of the pair of elongated rollers transfers the cylindrical products from the pair of rollers to a vertical accumulation chamber while changing the orientation of the cylindrical products from a vertical alignment to a horizontal alignment. The cylindrical products are discharged from the vertical accumulation chamber to a take away conveyance. Operation of the components of the automated machine can be controlled by a computer. Optical sensors can be employed to monitor flow of the cylindrical products through the automated machine during operation.

A feeding mechanism of a shooting device includes a feeding disk, a feeding wheel arranged at the feeding disk and including a feeding member, and a transmission assembly configured to drive the feeding wheel to rotate unidirectionally to cause the feeding member to push a projectile accommodated in the feeding disk to a projectile outlet.

The installation includes a traversing portion configured to be rotatably mounted and supported on a stationary support structure, to rotate about a traversing axis. An elevating portion is rotatably supported by the traversing portion about an elevating axis perpendicular to the traversing axis. A firearm assembly supported by the elevating portion has a barrel configured to fire linkless ammunitions through firearm assembly. A magazine is configured to contain a plurality of linkless ammunitions to be fed to the barrel. A feeding assembly is configured to transfer the linkless ammunitions from the magazine to the barrel. The magazine is carried by the traversing portion and is operatively integral therewith. The feeding assembly is carried by the elevating portion and is operatively integral therewith. A transfer device mounted on the traversing portion is configured to transfer the linkless ammunitions (A) from the magazine to the feeding assembly.
