11,741. Matthews, J. H. June 5. Breech actions, sliding breech-block; magazines. -The feed-plate 2 of a magazine is adapted to be depressed and retained in that position for charging and to be released by pushing in the cut-off 9. The elevating-spring 4, which is connected to the feed-plate 2 by a rod 10 and slot 11, is compressed by drawing down the rod 6, which is guided in inclined slots 5 and connected to the spring by a link 7. Recesses 8 are formed at the lower ends of the slot so as to retain the rod 6 until it is freed by the cut-off 9 being pushed in so as to depress the column of cartridges.
