SHOOTING DEVICE Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: multicharge devices for shooting with low-impulse cartridges. SUBSTANCE: when after a shot the trigger is released, it returns to the initial position, and the lever, coupled with it, lowers and with the lug turns the ratchet wheel, whose lower arm releases the sprocket.

The next cartridge turns the sprocket, its tongue, acting on the lever lug, bring the lever aside from the ratchet wheel. Under the spring action the ratchet wheel returns to the initial position, and its shoulder rests against the sprocket tongue, preventing its further turning and holding the next cartridge on the line of fire.
