ABSTRACT:
A toy gun for launching foam projectiles includes a forward housing having a launch chamber and a rearward housing slidably connected to the forward housing. The rearward housing is adapted to be shiftable between a forward or retracted position disposed within or generally adjacent to the forward housing and an extended position. A releasable latch is provided which is adapted to engage the rearward housing as the rearward housing is shifted to the extended position, thereby maintaining the rearward housing in the extended position. A pneumatic launcher having a spring operated plunger, an actuating trigger, and a compression chamber in flow communication with the launch chamber is disposed within the forward and rearward housings. The plunger is shiftable to between a cocked position in response to rearward movement of the rearward housing toward the extended position and is retained by the actuating trigger. Upon release of the actuating trigger, the plunger advances thus launching a projectile in a conventional manner. A portion of the plunger operatively engages the releasable latch to disengage the latch in response to forward movement of the plunger upon release of the trigger, thereby permitting the rearward housing to return to a forward position.
