An illuminated feedneck may be utilized in a toy blaster, laser tag gun, airsoft or other toy gun, and the like to illuminate ammunition, such as Gellets, for use in non-daylight hours or indoors. A feedneck may be illuminated through ultraviolet light that may be powered through batteries and/or one or more other forms of power. The illuminated feedneck may charge ammunition through a series of specialty UVA (˜400 nM) wavelength light emitting diodes (LEDs) that safely become illuminated with a long-lasting and bright green glow. The ammunition may be infused to create a glow-in-the dark tracer effect as they are powered and pass through the illuminated feedneck.

A high impact strength lighted nock assembly for an arrow that is activated when the arrow is fired with a bowstring. The lighted nock assembly includes a nock molded from a high impact strength, transparent polymeric material containing at least 10% by weight reinforcing fibers. The nock includes a head configured to engage with the bowstring and a shank configured to couple with a rear end of the arrow. The shank includes a recess extending in a distal end of the shank toward the head. A light assembly including a light emitting device is located in the recess in the shank that is electrically coupled to a battery. A switch is electrically coupled to the light emitting device and the battery that is triggered when the arrow is tired to activate the light emitting device.

When Law Enforcement and Military teams are entering a premises or hostile environment, they often use a distraction device to create temporary confusion and disorientation of target individuals. Conventional flash-bangs carry significant risk of collateral damage through fire, smoke inhalation, high temperature burns and fragmentation. The invention proposes a modular, reloadable, non-lethal solution offering various form factors. They significantly reduce/eliminate collateral damage. The devices utilise the same principle—single or multiple machined port(s), plus pyrotechnic ignitor. Gas pressure expanding inside each port ruptures a membrane. The release of this pressure creates a sound impulse. For GMOE (Glass method of Entry) Hand-held, Wired & RF initiated devices, gas pressure created by the ignitor functioning drives a captive hardened steel punch forward. The punch ruptures a membrane on the front face of the device breaking any glass it is in contact with.

A non-pyrotechnic aerial display system may include a launcher configured to launch a non-pyrotechnic aerial display apparatus. The apparatus may include a head portion and a wing portion. The head portion may include a front portion, a rear portion, and a plurality of channels extending from the front portion toward the rear portion. The wing portion may extend rearward from the head portion. The wing portion may include a top surface, a bottom surface, a leading edge, a trailing edge, a rear edge extending from the leading edge to the trailing edge, and an airfoil extending along the leading edge. The wing portion may include a counterweight. The apparatus may include one or more forward-facing lights. The apparatus may include one or more rearward-facing lights. Other examples may be described and claimed.

A digitally controlled hand-tossable explosive delivery receptacle comprises a ruggedized reusable compartment enclosing a digital circuit and a disposable cartridge holding one or more explosive chemical agents and a primer. The disposable cartridge is configured to be mounted to the ruggedized reusable cartridge, and a high-strength bulkhead incorporated into the reusable or disposable compartment that separates the digital circuit from the chemical agents. The reusable compartment is sufficiently ruggedized to withstand the ignition of the primer and the detonation of the chemical agents to be reused with one or more additional disposable cartridges. In one implementation, the delivery receptacle uses a commercial airbag initiator as the primer, which is arranged in relation to the one or more chemical agents so that when the initiator is activated, it generates a pressure wave that expels the one or more chemical agents from the grenade.
