Abstract
A loading device for a power-actuated tool which comprises a fixed support having an open recess adapted to receive the open end of a tubular propellant charge-retaining holder. A movable charge transporter is mounted on the exterior of the tool and contains a through passage which is movable between a charge-receiving position adjacent to the fixed support recess, and a charge-loading position adjacent to the firing chamber of the tool. Charges are gravity fed from the transporter to the firing chamber. The transporter moves to and from the loading position by pivoting through a pre-existing loading port in the tool.
