ABSTRACT:
A projection device for firing e.g. a squash ball comprises a one-piece plastics body with a transverse bore in which a trigger plunger is seated. The squash ball seats in a flaring muzzle cavity at the front end of the body. A blank cartridge is loaded into a firing chamber immediately behind the muzzle cavity, and having a breech formed by the front surface of the trigger plunger. The trigger plunger is pierced by an opening which, when the plunger is depressed, allows a sprung firing pin to move forward and fire the cartridge to eject the squash ball at high velocity. To prevent inadvertent discharge of the device, the head of the plunger is restrained by a withdrawable split pin and also by a hinging spring clip.
