Itwill be understood that tion of either avolume of Vgas of anoxious or any suitable firing means may be substituted. irritating character, whichis' generated the v,breech block 12 is screwed into the end of gun incident tothe heat of discharge, or for the `the grip or handle in advance of the plunger.A 1 projection ofva body ofV nely divided powder of The frame of the-device consists of Va `heavy i 5Y noxious orjirritatingcharacter, such as diphenyl- Vcoil spring 13 which is attached-securely to the aminechlorarsinel which does not form agasybut barrel by screwing it thereon, the barrel being has somewhat'similareffects.-` The invention has lsuitably threaded for this purpose. 1 The spring for 'its objects Vthe provision offan improved gun is similarly attached -at 4itsou'ter `end to the adapted to employ either the" foraminous type vnozzle piece 14. The "frame is' cushioned 'or 10 0f cartridge, which carries a gas generating DOW- paddedv by a vsheath 15 ofrubber, which is reiader, or the .type for cartridge having imperforate tively soft and which is secured to the'spring -13 side walls and which discharges a noxious powand member 14 either by molding it in position der through its end. Heretofore a different gun or by screwing it thereover. 15 has been required for each type of cartridge. A Insertable into the barrel from the rear end 15 further Object is the provision of a gun having when the barrel is unscrewed, is the cartridge 5, Aimproved means for centering `both types of carwhich is of the gas generating type having its tridges, so that they are, properly centered in sidewall perforated and its front end closed by the barrel of the gun without diiiiculty or loss of a capV 16.

The space 18, which is provided between Y Certain embodiments ofthe invention are VshownV the wall of the cartridge and the wall of the bara5 in the accompanying drawing, wherein: rel, permits a free outow of the gas generated 25 Figure lis a side elevation of the device.

What I claim is:
1. In combination.y in a gas gun, a grip or handle, a barrel secured releasably at its rear end to the grip, said barrel having a reduced diameter at the rear end of its bore :adapted to fit the cartridge used Vin the gun and to center it, and having a larger diameter from `Such reduced diameter outward, and a cup member anchored.l
