Y l Speciiicntion forming part of Letters Patent'No. 131,104, dated September l3, 1872.
i' Beit known that I, ALBERT-"ID, Laws,of
Bridgeport, in the lcountyof `Fairiield and.
State of Oonnecticut,-haveinvented a new and Improved Shot-Cartridge; v and I dohere'- bydeclare that the following is a full, clear,-
and exact .description thereof, reference being had'l'to the accompanying drawing making partof this specication, in whichl Figure 1 is a diametrical section through my improved'metallic-shot shell. Fig. 2 is a dametrical section through my improved paper-shot shell'. l
Similarl letters of reference indicate corresponding parts' in both figures. s The object of this invention is to improve shot-cartridges by constrnctingm. their.` interior surfaces, between their ends, a number of corrugationsor shoulders, -and in combining.
with .such .a cartridge `a wad which will be firmly heldin its place by any one of said cor- `rngation`s or shoulders, according to thevarying sizes of the 'chargesjof shot used, as will be hereinafter explained; 4 The following description of my4 invention stand it.4 Y,
In the accompanying drawing, -A represents 'a Ashot-shell, for a. breech-loading gun, Vwhich rugations, aia, are pressed into it at proper p distances apart, according to diierent charges-I which. it may be desired to use. The corrugations are annular and in planes at right angles tothe axis of the yshell, and are designed. to 4 ill enable others skilled in' the art'to underi afford shoulders for receiving the edge of the -wad b, which retains the shot in place.
Prior to-myinvention shot-shells were made.
Asmooth on theirinnersides, and in continual in bird-shooting) the' charge in the other barrel becomes loose from lthe jar and concussion and frequently' drops out of the barrel. Also, -in carrying-'shct-shells inthe belt the smooth shells. have vto bearranged bottom sido up, by doing which a great many are lost outof the belt.
These objections to the old shot-shell donot prevail with my improved shells, for theshoulders awill firmly-'hold in place the-wads which are last placed in the shells. i Iam aware that it is` not new with me to construct a corrugated Iball-cartridge; neither .isit new to secure a wad' in the vend of a cartridge by turning over the end. Ido not, \thereibre,.claim these Vfeatures broadly. My invention is not only for the purpose of holding the wad of la shot-cartridge'iirmly in place of permitting this to be done for charges varying in size.
Having described my invention,what Iclaim as new, and desire to secure by.Letters Patent, is. V
The combination of a corrugated shot-can,
the wad can be retained in,4 any desired position, substantially as and forl the purpose described.A Y
