MOONCLIPS FOR USE IN BRAKE ACTION WEAPONS/FIREARMS
An ammunition holder and loader device for shotshells for a shotgun has two adjacent chambers separated by a selected spacing and has a planar body. The body has a pair of cartridge receptacles, each having a resilient retainer element configured to removably retain a rear portion of a shotshell against limited extraction force and to enable removal of the shotshell in response to deliberate force greater than the limited force. The receptacles have opening facing opposite directions.

This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/923,648, filed on Oct. 21, 2019, entitled “Moonclips for Use in Brake Action Weapons/Firearms”, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety for all that is taught and disclosed therein.
FIELD OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention relates to caliper adapters, shotguns, and more particularly, to caliper adapter inserts.
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARYRevolver pistols are loaded one bullet at a time. In a high stress situation, such as home protection or timed sporting environment, loading one at a time is time consuming and the user runs a high risk of fumbling.
Break action weapons with more than one barrel (such as a double barrel shotgun) are normally loaded one round at a time. This presents the same problem as with revolvers.
The above disadvantages are addressed by providing an ammunition holder and loader device for shotshells for a shotgun has two adjacent chambers separated by a selected spacing and has a planar body. The body has a pair of cartridge receptacles, each having a resilient retainer element configured to removably retain a rear portion of a shotshell against limited extraction force and to enable removal of the shotshell in response to deliberate force greater than the limited force. The receptacles have opening facing opposite directions.
Claims
1. An ammunition holder and loader device for shotshells for a shotgun having two adjacent chambers separated by a selected spacing, the device comprising;
- a planar body;
- the body defining a pair of cartridge receptacles;
- the receptacles each having a resilient retainer element configured to removably retain a rear portion of a shotshell against limited extraction force and to enable removal of the shotshell in response to deliberate force greater than the limited force; and
