A stationary life-saving unit launcher. The stationary life-saving unit launcher includes: a base; a compressed gas tank mounted to an upper portion of the base and supplying compressed gas; a frame mounted above the base by being spaced apart by a predetermined distance therefrom; and a launch unit mounted to the frame and firing a life-saving unit by using the impact force of the compressed gas supplied from the compressed gas tank. The launch unit is capable of firing a projectile without a loading motion for firing the life-saving unit after the mounting thereof.

A training method and apparatus are disclosed. The training method may include converting a firearm capable of firing live ammunition to a pneumatic training device incapable of firing live ammunition. The training method may further include cycling a pneumatic training device through one or more cycles. Each of the cycles may simulate an actual firing of the firearm. Each of the cycles may also include triggering a trigger assembly of the pneumatic training device, using a charge of a pressurized gas to reset the trigger assembly, and advancing a counter of the pneumatic training device. After a certain number of cycles have been completed, a next cycle may be attempted, but not completed. Accordingly, the training method may enable a user to safely and realistically practice reloading, jam or malfunction clearing, or the like.

A variable velocity pneumatic launcher including at least one chamber filled with a projectile. The launcher includes a ballast chamber filled with pressurized air released to propel a projectile from the launcher's barrel. The launcher includes a firing chamber filled with ambient air and a ballast chamber filled with pressurized air. A piston rod extends between the chambers and attaches to a firing piston and a ballast piston inside the firing chamber and ballast chamber, respectively. The rod is connected to a velocity valve which controls the rod's longitudinal movement. When the trigger is activated, pressurized air from the ballast chamber is delivered to the firing chamber. Because the surface area of the firing piston is greater than the ballast piston's surface area, the force exerted on the firing piston is sufficient to displace the ballast piston and allow pressurize air to be released into the upper chamber containing the projectile.

A cylinder for a toy gun is assembled to the toy gun (100) for containing bullets. The cylinder (6) includes a fastening structure (61, 61a) and a surrounding structure (62). The fastening structure (61, 61a) is rotatably disposed on the toy gun (100). The surrounding structure (62) is surroundingly disposed in an outer periphery of the fastening structure (61, 61a). The surrounding structure (62) includes multiple sleeves (621) circularly connected to one another. Each sleeve (621) has a chamber (622) for containing the bullet. An inner wall of each chamber (622) is in elastic contact with the bullet to position the same. Accordingly, the cylinder (6) is suitable for all bullets (e.g. ball bullets (900) made from iron or lead or a plastic trumpet-shaped bullet (800)), thereby enhancing utility, and all bullets can be positioned stably and properly in the chambers (622) without falling out.

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.

An airgun has a high pressure reservoir for providing a pressurized motive gas to a breech to fire a projectile. A regulator is intermediate the high pressure reservoir and a downstream firing pressure reservoir for providing a consistent regulated pressure of the motive gas in the firing pressure reservoir. The airgun includes a bypass line for selectively connecting the high pressure reservoir to the firing pressure reservoir, independently of the regulator. Thus, an operator can select a firing of the airgun with either a regulated gas pressure in the firing reservoir or the pressure of the high pressure reservoir.
