Ok i got some pictures to explain it a little bit better there small but i think you can manage. Sorry moderators but i couldnt figure out how to post pictures after you have wrote the forum.
Ok the first picture is the "shotgun style loading cannon" you have to read this before you look at the picture because its hard to figure out.
A=Chamber
B=Barrel
C=Tube (where golf balls are stored)
D=Spring (on sides of gun if looking from a aireal view)
E=Lever (load golf balls and puts them in barrel
Blue Arrow=Some type of spring or something that pushes (i used a arrow to show direction and i dont know what i want to use for sure either)
Like always when it goes from your brain to paper there are some problems i will point them out to you and if you could please give a soulution to the problem. First problem never mind just trash it lets move onto the second idea.
I like this idea alot better and its alot simpler like before let me give you a key.
A=Chamber
B=Tube or hopper(where ammo is stored)
C=Opening where you insert ammo
D=Support which has no purpose besides holding tube parrel to barrel
E=Barrel
Blue thing=Moving part of the breach loader which can found under How-To
This proably is self explanitory and doesnt need any explaining. Just like a hopper on a paintball gun this is a gravity feeding idea. One more thing why i made it the shape that it is so you can use it for a handle. If yo see any problems or suggestion please write a post.

i understand that first thing much better now, but how will u make that ramp thing in the second gun go up an ddown to load the golf balls??
I thought in my head that the pressure from behind the golf balls would make first golfball catch on the lever bring it down. But for that to happen more then half of the golf ball would have to be exposed. There is two solutions to the problem either trash the whole idea or you could pull down on the outside where spring is then it would load. I wish that i would work so you didnt have to do that though. Thanks for the ?.
