ABSTRACT:
An ammunition resupply system includes a chain ladder ammunition conveyor having carrier elements configured to accept either of two different calibers of ammunition. The ammunition conveyor is trained in a serpentine path back and forth between adjacent pairs of guide shelves supported one atop another in stacked relation. The guide shelves are integrally formed with opposing round engaging and round control surfaces between which the ammunition rounds are conveyed to provide positive round guidance and control effective in maintaining the ammunition round properly positioned between adjacent pairs of conveyor carrier elements.
