Abstract
A non-jamming magazine 51 supports bar-like articles 10 in inclined positions so that the lowermost articles may be successively withdrawn and the remainder of the stack will drop without cocking an article between side rails 22 and 23 to jam and preclude further withdrawal of the articles. A parallelogram fixture 50 is used to receive a supply of articles 10 and upon flexing of the fixture, the articles are placed in inclined positions for loading into the magazine.
