Loading mechanism for an air gun

An air gun comprising having a loading mechanism for loading metal ammunition into the air gun from a magazine of the air gun, the loading mechanism comprising:

• a housing comprising a loading chamber positioned adjacent to a housing passageway, the loading chamber operable to load ammunition therein;
• a resilient bucking disposed within the housing passageway, the bucking comprising a bucking passageway operable to receive ammunition transferred from the loading chamber;
• a spring having a plurality of spring coils, the spring disposed in the housing passageway and operable to apply pressure to the bucking when the spring is compressed;
• a gun barrel slidably positioned within the housing passageway, wherein the barrel of the air gun is positioned within an inner diameter of the spring;
• and
• a fastening mechanism operable to attach the gun barrel to the housing and to put the spring into compression;
• wherein, when the spring is compressed, pressure is applied to the bucking and the bucking passageway is collapsed inward to seal entirely around ammunition that is positioned within the bucking passageway.

• a gun barrel slidably positioned within the housing passageway;
• and
• a threaded adjustable cap operable to attach the gun barrel to the housing and to put the spring into compression, the threaded adjustable cap having a plurality of threads that mate to a corresponding plurality of threads on the housing;
• wherein, when the spring is compressed, pressure is applied to the bucking and the bucking passageway is collapsed inward to seal entirely around ammunition that is positioned within the bucking passageway;
• and
• wherein the amount of pressure applied to the spring and bucking is adjustable by the amount of threads on the adjustable cap that are engaged to the threads on the housing.
