ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for use in launching toy projectiles which comprises a piston or bellows having one side pneumatically connected to an operating mechanism and its opposite side arranged so as to be capable of launching a projectile from the apparatus when moved towards that projectile at a sufficient speed, the operating mechanism exhibiting a chamber whose size can be suddenly changed by squeezing, or a manual blow, or the release of a stressed spring, to alter the pneumatic pressure applied to the piston or bellows and displace it launchingly towards a projectile, the initial volume of the chamber preferably being rapidly restored to suck the piston or bellows back to substantially its initial position after each launching operation.
