A tank mortar having a magazine receiving a plurality of fin-stabilized projectiles which can be selectively aligned with the barrel. The barrel is movable relative to the magazine to enable sealing engagement of the barrel with the selected magazine chamber. The weapon frame which rotatably receives the magazine has an upper portion in which the bottom of the barrel is axially shiftable, e.g. by a bayonet arrangement, and a lower portion which sealingly engages the bottom of the munition chamber which is aligned with the barrel includes the firing element which triggers the displacement of the projective from the round chamber through the barrel. The base of the weapon frame is also provided with a ball received in a socket which is shiftable to traverse the weapon.
