ATTACHMENT FOR MAGAZINE-GUNS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 726,562, dated April 28, 1903.
Application filed June 28,1902.
To all whont it may concern.-
Be it known that I, PHILIP M. OFFUTT, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of Hamlet, county of Olermont, State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and useful Attachment for a Magazine-Gun, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is an attachment for magazine-guns, which may be set readily to prevent a fresh shell from being fed into place after the discharged shell has been thrown out of the gun, which is simple in construction and inobtrusive when not in use. This object is attained by the means described in the specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation of so much of a magazine-gun as is necessary to illustrate my invention, the gun being shown in dotted lines in the position it occupies after the shell has been thrown therefrom, the attachment being shown in its inoperative position. Fig. 2 is a detail central sectional view taken through the magazine,upon an enlarged scale, showing the attachment in its operative position. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing it in its inoperative position. Fig. 4.- is a crosssection taken upon line 2 z of Fig. 3, upon an enlarged scale. Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view of the slide forming part of my attachment. Fig. 6 is a detail perspective view of the spring thereof, bot-h Figs. 5 and 6 being upon enlarged scales.
Referring to the parts, gun A, with its magazine a for cartridges, its barrel a, its carrier aiand slide CL ,tl16 throwing rearward of which discharges the empty shell from the gun and lowers lever a for the reception of a fresh shell, which is carried up to place by carrying slide a forward again, are all of the construction now in general use and need not, therefore, be more specifically described.
Attached to the under side of the gun is a spring-arm B, which has at its rear end an upwardly-projecting arm 5, which stands in the plane of the rear end of magazine a. The spring-arm B is attached at its forward end to the gun by a screw 1), its rear end Z) being free and standing normally with its upper edge upon the lower edge of magazine a. Spring B has a short distance in front of screw 7) a central perforation b through which a Serial No. 113,560. (No model.)
screw 19 passes loosely into the under side of the gun. Screw 5 does not bind the spring B, but simply holds it from lateral movement, allowing its endb a free movement toward and away from the end of the magazine (1,. End b of spring B may he carried inward to project over the rear edge of magazine a by means of a slide O, which has upwardly-pro jecting parallel flanges c and c to fit over the spring B and has a wedge-shaped way 0 to fit the head of screw b Flanges c and 0, contacting the edges of spring B, keep the slide from lateral movement, and the way 0 fitting the head b holds the slide against the under side of the gun, while at the same time permitting its free longitudinal movement. At the rearward end of way 0 slide 0 has a small stud 0 which contacts the head of screw b and limits the forward movement of slide 0.
In use magazine a, is usually filled with shells D, containing a certain-sized shot-as, for instance, the shot for quail-shooting. As long then as one is shooting quail slide 0 is pushed forward in the position shown in Figs. 1 and 3, and whenever an empty shell is thrown out of the gun by pushing rearward slide a a fresh cartridge is fed onto carrier a from the magazine and is carried up into place when the slide a is pushed forward. Now should one desire to use a shell containing different-sized shots he would pull slide O rearward, thereby carrying end 6 up, so as to project over the end of the magazine. Now when the slide a is pulled rearward, discharging the shell from the gun and lowering carrier a a fresh cartridge from magazine a. is prevented from sliding in upon carrier of, and a shell containing the sized shot desired may then be inserted upon lever a by hand and will be carried up into place when slide a is pushed forward in the usual manner. As long as slide 0 is retained in its rearward position cartridges from magazine a are prevented from being fed into place, and as soon as one desires to again use the cartridges in magazine a all that he has to do is to push slide 0 forward, when the cartridge will again be fed into place in the usual manner.
The simplicity and the rapidity with which the attachment may be operated for a change of shell can be readily appreciated. The advantage of this rapid movement is likewise readily appreciated, as one knows in shooting game when occasions do arise for mak ing a change in the size of shot it is desired to do it without any loss of time, which might allow the game to escape.
What I claim is 1. In cornbinationamagazine-gun,aspringarm attached to the magazine and having an upturned free end adapted to enter the carrierslot in front of the carrier, the free end of said arm being normally out of the path of the cartridges, a sliding member secured to the magazine and adapted by its engagement with the spring-arm to project the free end of the arm into the path of the cartridges in the magazine to prevent their discharging therefrom, substantially as specified.
2. An attachment for a magazine-gun consisting of a flat spring with an upturned end secured at the end opposite the upturned end to the under side of the magazine with its upturned end standing normally below the rear end of the magazine to-ailow the free exit of cartridges therefrom, a slide having a way to fit over the spring, and a means for holding the slide to the gun so that it may be capable of a longitudinal movement thereon to carry the upturned end over the end of the magazine, substantially as shown and described.
3. An attachment for a magazine-gun consisting of a fiat spring with an upturned free end and attached to the magazine at the end opposite the free end of the spring and having an enlarged perforation therein, a screw passing up through the perforation into the gun, a slide to fit over the spring and having a Way to engage the screw, whereby the slide is made capable of a movement in a longitudinal direction only to carry the end of the spring up over the end of the magazine to prevent the eXit of cartridges therefrom, substantially as shown and described.
