A toy launcher including a housing, a storage cartridge configured for placement into an opening of the housing, with projectiles within the storage cartridge held in a first orientation, a cocking slide movably attached to the housing between a first position and a second position, a reciprocating frame operatively connected to the cocking slide, a projectile housing pivotably attached to the toy launcher housing adjacent to the storage cartridge, and a reciprocating feed lever operatively connected to the reciprocating frame. Movement of the cocking slide from the first position to the second position in a first priming step and then back to the first position in a second priming step causes the feed lever to push a projectile from the storage cartridge into the projectile housing, pivots the projectile housing so that the projectile is in a second orientation, and places the projectile in the second orientation at a firing position within the toy launcher.

A shotgun is formed of sub-assemblies which include a lower receiver upon which a butt stock and an upper receiver are mounted. The lower receiver houses the fire control mechanism, the butt stock includes an ammunition elevator and a breech cover. Magazine tubes, ammunition cut-offs, a selector, a selector interrupter and the barrel are mounted on the upper receiver.

Provided is a cartridge feed guide particularly useful for a pistol-caliber firearm with a blow-back bolt. It includes a barrel with a chamber with an open entrance to receive a cartridge. A guide member is situated rearward of the chamber entrance and has a pair of generally upwardly extending and laterally spaced apart pillars configured to guide a cartridge being pushed by the bolt from a magazine by limiting lateral angular of the cartridge. The guide member can also provide a fulcrum on which a vertical angle of the cartridge pivots as it is being chambered.

A device is movably attachable to an upper receiver of a firearm adjacent to a rear end of an ejection port on the upper receiver. The device is configured to move linearly in directions parallel to a longitudinal axis of the upper receiver to function as a forward assist to cause a bolt carrier of the firearm to move forward with respect to the upper receiver. The device comprises a shell deflector having a deflection surface configured to deflect spent casings ejected out of the ejection port when the firearm is in operation.

A break open rifle and bolt action rifle having a barrel extension with a breech end for receiving a propellant charge, a muzzle end with an extended attachment structure for receiving a complementary attachment structure of a barrel, and a chamber disposed within and through the barrel extension having a first diameter at a first end and a narrowing portion adjacent a second end opposite the first end, the narrowing portion having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter, wherein the first diameter of the chamber is sized to receive the propellant charge therein, and the second diameter of the narrowing portion is sized to prevent the propellant charge from being further inserted past the narrowing portion, and to prevent a projectile from being inserted through the chamber from the barrel muzzle end. A bolt action configuration having dual diameter non-rotating bolt with an extractor and ejector mechanism for removing a propellant charge.

A recoilless, slideless repeating magazine-fed (19) weapon, comprising a hammer (9), a hammer pull rod (7), a trigger spring (8) and a safety (28). The open breech (15) connects directly to the open, expanding cross-section funnel (18), and furthermore the funnel (18) has an extractor (24) on the side which connects to the forend (21) through a funnel pull rod (20), and furthermore the magazine (19) is connected to the magazine well (19/1) at the bottom of the open breech (15) with a magazine holding pin (19/6). The weapon is compatible with a variety of magazines (19), including box magazines (with one or more rows of cartridges), drum magazines, or helical magazines.
