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.

A toy launcher with a drum magazine assembly that has a rotatable drum portion mounted for rotation, with a rear plate and a central support with an opening for a support axle. A ring of projectile holders is connected to the rear plate, with each projectile holder holding at least two projectiles arranged in a generally radially stacked configuration. Generally radially extending walls are located between adjacent projectile holders. Each of the projectile holders includes a slot on a radially inner side into which a projectile biasing arm extends at a projectile launch position. A pusher is located in the housing adjacent to the projectile launch position. Drive wheels are positioned in front of the drum magazine assembly at the projectile launch position. The drive wheels are motorized so that they rotate to propel a projectile pushed from the drum between the drive wheels for launching the projectile.

A rotary ammunition magazine for a rifle has a follower that is spring biased and rotates about an axis to move cartridges for feeding to the rifle's chamber. The follower has a rib and/or a projection on a surface facing the cartridges. The rib engages the last cartridge in a stack and directs the force from the follower in the direction of movement of the cartridges within the magazine. The projection engages the extractor groove in the last cartridge to prevent it from moving under inertial forces caused by recoil. The rib engages and prevents the last cartridge from moving down the follower. The projection and rib prevent bolt override malfunctions.
