A self-loading shotgun includes a lock movable inside a lock housing between an open position and a closed position, a barrel, a magazine disposed below the barrel, a lock catch for holding the lock in the open position, and a feeder system for lifting a cartridge delivered from the magazine to the height of the barrel. The feeder system includes a feeder that swivels about a transverse axis and a magazine hatch that interacts with the lock catch. To allow the self-loading shotgun to be fully loaded even when the lock is open, the swivel movement of the feeder generated by the lock is controlled by a control element separate from the lock catch.

An automatic reloading device for a weapon fed by two ammunition magazines includes first and second ammunition conveyors, each movable in phase opposition between a position for collecting a piece of ammunition from a magazine and a position for reloading the weapon. The automatic reloading device includes a single actuator, able to output an alternating motion, and movement means for transmitting the alternating motion to the first and second ammunition conveyors and converting it into movements of the first and second ammunition conveyors for an alternating feeding of the weapon.

The invention also relates to a weapon system including such an automatic reloading device.
