ABSTRACT:
A device and apparatus, consisting of a standard barrel, a superconductive magnet winding wrapped around the barrel, a large mass piston and a projectile. This device is a direct-current powered hybrid coil gun which operates to accelerate projectiles to high velocity without the requirement of gigawatt power pulses. The device also lowers the cost of power required per shot and makes possible extended life of the individual parts of the apparatus.
