ABSTRACT:
A shell launching assembly includes a projector barrel having a smooth, inner wall and an upper end into which a shell is loaded by insertion from above. The assembly comprises an ignition mechanism disposed in a lower end of the barrel closed by a cap member. The projector barrel is positioned in a variable tilted position. A recoil brake mechanism is mounted to cushion the recoil of the projector barrel from a starting position to a recoil position upon firing a shell therefrom. The projector barrel is removably disposed with respect to the recoil brake mechanism so that the barrel may be independently used apart from the launching assembly.
