(57) ABSTRACT
(76) Inventors: “101"” A- Teach’ ‘IR-s South The light-Weight handheld less-lethal ballistic projectile Bend’ IN (Us); Davld C‘ sult’ launcher is con?gured as an “over/under” double barrel hand South Bend’ IN (Us) held device With a “break open” loading action. The launcher
includes a barrel section pivotally connected to receiver sec (21) Appl' No‘: 12/924510 tion. The barrel section pivots between an open load/unload
_ position and a closed ?ring position. The barrel section (22) Flled: sep‘ 29’ 2010 includes tWo metal barrel sleeves that are press ?t into axial
_ _ bores formed in the body of the barrel section. The barrel Related U‘s‘ Apphcatlon Data section also includes an ejector, Which locks the barrel section
(60) Provisional application No. 61/247,286, ?led on Sep. in the Closed ?ring Position and Partially expels 5pmt rounds 30, 2009 from the barrel sleeves When the barrel section is opened. The
receiver section houses the launcher’s ?re control mecha _ _ _ _ nism. The ?re control mechanism uses a traditional single
Pubhcatlon Classl?catlon action operation and ensures that rounds are alternatively
(51) Int, Cl, discharged from each barrel and prevents rounds from both F41A 3/58 (200601) barrels from being discharged simultaneously.
