Abstract: A projectile magazine for use with an airgun having a bolt is described herein. The magazine includes a housing with a loading end and openings along a longitudinal axis extending from the loading end to a loading area. The magazine further includes a carousel with a plurality of projectile holders movable through the loading area. Each projectile holder has a projectile holder gap facing the loading end when in the loading area. The projectile holder gap is smaller than a width of the bolt and the projectile holder is resiliently deformable to allow the bolt through the projectile holder gap when exposed to forces created during separation of the magazine and the bolt through the frame gap while the projectile holder does not deform to allow a projectile to be removed from the projectile gap when exposed to the forces generated by a projectile during use of the magazine.

Abstract: An airgun for use with a projectile supply is described. A cam surface of the airgun and a bolt positioner of the airgun are configured so that rotation from a firing position to a reloading position causes a cam surface of the airgun to drive the bolt positioner through a passageway of the projectile supply to drive a projectile in the passageway to a position where pressurized gas in the firing location will thrust the projectile through the bore.

Abstract: Break barrel airguns are provided with a loading system that uses the cocking action of the break barrel type airgun to load projectiles from a magazine held by a magazine holder into a shuttle system that is positioned by the magazine holder during loader and moved to a position aligned with the barrel during firing. The loading system has a resilient barrier between the magazine holder and the shuttle that reduces the risks of loading errors caused by adhesion between the bolt and a pellet.

Abstract: Projectile carriers are provided. In one aspect, a projectile carrier has a storage area with a breech opening and a bolt opening aligned with the breech opening along a first axis, a plurality of projectile drivers positioned in the storage area are biased to move in a first direction within the storage area along a path that passes between the breech opening and the bore opening. A stop is positioned to stop movement of the projectile drivers in the first direction when one of the projectile drivers is positioned substantially aligned at the first axis. The projectile drivers have a block that prevents a projectile from exiting the bolt opening. The projectile drivers are sized and can be moved in a second direction to allow a bolt to drive a projectile along the first axis through the breech opening.

Abstract: A blowback assembly for an airgun includes a valve body and a valve stem disposed within and movable with respect to the valve body. The valve stem has a stepped outer profile and the valve body defines a passageway having a stepped inner profile. The valve stem is normally biased against the valve body to form a seal containing a compressed gas in a valve stem chamber forming part of the passageway of the valve body. When the valve stem is moved from the normal position, compressed gas is expelled from the valve stem chamber to cock the airgun and to fire a projectile from the airgun.

Abstract: A bore sight including a rear casing, a front casing sized to cooperatively engage the rear casing and define a first cavity and a separate second cavity, a laser disposed within the first cavity, and a battery in the second cavity. The bore sight further includes a switch selectively connecting the battery and the laser, an elongate mandrel releasably engaging the rear cavity, the mandrel having a free-end, a tapered seating collar having a through hole sized to receive a length of the mandrel, the seating collar being a separate components from the mandrel and the rear casing, wherein the seating collar can be formed of a different second material than the mandrel and the rear casing; and an adaptor releasably engaging a free end of the mandrel.
