Abstract
An ammunition feeder chute includes a plurality of unitary segments injection molded from a flexible thermoplastics material. The segments are articulated to one another in side-by-side relationship, and are interconnected by a cable which passes through a pair of apertures formed in opposed side walls of each segment. The opposed side walls are joined by an elongate base member which has a predetermined torsional flexure for facilitating overall torsional flexure of the feeder chute. Each segment is formed with complemental arcuate tab and recess formations for allowing pivoting of adjacent segments relative to one another.
