Abstract:
A sub-caliber in-bore device placed within a launching structure of a larger caliber weapon system used to simulate the firing and ballistic trajectory of a larger and relatively more expensive weapons round. The said device essentially comprises a smaller caliber weapon subsystem with recoil suppression mounting subsystem, traverse and elevation adjustment subsystem, firing circuit delay timer, and an electrical connection subassembly to allow communications with the launching system. This invention provides an accurate, realistic, and cost-effective training experience to the operator.

The first notch of the lever is connected to the first engagement pin of the ring, and the second notch is connected to the second engagement pin of the ring. When the lever is rotated relative to the ring body, the first notch pivots around the first engagement pin and the second notch of the lever pulls the second engagement pin around the first engagement pin.
