A Gatling gun with a magazine feed mechanism for use with a spring-loaded magazine. The magazine feed mechanism is configured to transfer spring-loaded rounds from the magazine into successive chambers of the plurality of chambers in the Gatling gun. The magazine feed mechanism chambers rounds from the spring-loaded magazine as the gun's bolt carrier rotates during firing.

A number of embodiments of a firearm are disclosed where the firearm includes a magazine configured to hold the bolt in an open position when the magazine is empty. In one embodiment, the firearm includes a bolt stop mechanism that moves between a first position where it allows the bolt to cycle between an open position and a closed position and a second position where it holds the bolt in the open position. The magazine is configured to actuate the bolt stop mechanism to the first position when the magazine is empty.

Provided herein is an automatic or semiautomatic rifle having a short-stroke action. While the stroke-length of the action in conventional weapons is typically 2 to 3 times the length of the cartridge it fires, the stroke-length of the presented rifle may be less than 1.5 times the length of the cartridge it fires. The reduced a stroke-length results in a reduced receiver size and overall weapon length as well as weigh savings. Such a short stroke-length is provided by the use of a divorced chamber that moves relative to the barrel of the rifle. In contrast to existing weapons having a firing chamber that is fixedly attached to the barrel, the firing chamber moves forward and rearward relative to a rearward end of the barrel. In such an arrangement, ammunition cartridges may be inserted in to a forward end of chamber and then positioned against a barrel of the rifle.

A high capacity handgun/pistol is disclosed with a horizontally oriented magazine that is aligned with and disposed beneath the gun barrel. The magazine defines a plurality of hollow tubes arranged radially around a central axis about which the magazine can rotate automatically during operation of the handgun/pistol. The hollow tubes each contain a plurality of ammunition rounds, and can each be aligned with a loading tray one at a time, wherein a coil spring will push out a single round at a time onto the loading tray. The handgun uses a gun slide to load a new round into the chamber via the loading tray, and further enabling the loading tray to automatically rotate the magazine as each hollow tube becomes empty. Moreover, the slide will re-set a hammer to re-engage with a sear, after a pulled trigger releases the hammer to strike a firing pin. The handgun is further equipped with a selector switch enabling automatic and semi-automatic firing modes, wherein the semi-automatic firing mode can be further specified to select a three round burst fire mode. The handgun can also be configured with a simpler firing mode cam and fewer parts that limits it to semi-automatic firing mode. Additionally, the handgun barrel is separable and replaceable if the barrel becomes too hot after rapid fire.

A firearm is provided comprising a frame which defines a forward aperture. A cylinder is mounted rotatably to the frame to rotate on a cylinder axis. The cylinder defines a plurality of passages each at a common radius from the axis, each passage includes a chamber and a rifled bore. At least one of the passages is being chambered for a different caliber than at least one other of the passages.

The invention belongs to a weapon namely to the automatic weapons without ammunition. Particularly it belongs to the weapons using the energy of the explosion mixture gas, flammable liquid or other mixture in the combustion chamber as a mover of bullets. A weapon without ammunition, arranged according to the bullpup scheme, contains: the barrel; the receiver in the form of a cylinder rolling in a rectangular box; the trigger mechanism; the piston for supplying combustible mixture to the combustion chamber and for cooking the compressed air in the mixing tube. This piston is connected by a rod with the piston gas tube; the cylinder full of compressed gas, flammable liquid or other mixture; the drum with several chambers of internal combustion in the form of elongated cylinders. When moving to the trunk a drum is pushed by the nozzle of the lower chamber in the rear part of the bullet and toilet it in the trunk from the top of the camera. This occurs by the rotation around its own axis and longitudinal movement along this axis; the ignition mechanism consisting of a piezoelectric element and the spark; the secondary ignition system consists of a battery and a capacitor; the venting mechanism with the gas tube and piston, in which the gases are directed toward the muzzle; the return mechanism; the multi-function ammunition cartridge of extended capacity, feeding the bullets into the machine vertically. There is a function of the butt, and when you transfer the spare magazines on the body of the soldier there is a function of armor plates.
