A dolly for transporting projectiles of separate loading ammunition has a frame mounted on a pair of spaced rollers and has a manually engageable grip at the end thereof away from the rollers. A curved backing plate is mounted on the frame in front of the rollers and a lever is pivoted to the frame at a height appropriate to the length of the projectile. The end of the lever away from the rollers is provided with pin means to engage the ring in the projectile end closure plug and the other end of the lever is provided with a bail to assist in rotation of the lever to lift the projectile and permit it to swing against the backing plate. Latch means are mounted on the frame to lock the lever in position in which the projectile is raised and is lying against the backing plate. The arrangement of the pins in the lever is such that a pair of smaller diameter projectiles may be lifted onto the dolly at the same time or a single larger diameter projectile may be lifted onto the dolly.

A dolly for handling at least one projectile of separately loading ammunition, the projectile having a nose plug and a ring for the plug, the dolly having a frame and a pair of spaced rollers mounted on an end of said frame, the improvement comprising a housing member mounted on said frame above and away from said rollers curved to accommodate the curvature of said at least one projectile; a lever pivoted on said frame above said housing, an actuating arm for said lever on side of said frame above said rollers, at least one fork on said lever on a side of said frame above said housing; a pin for sliding in said at least one fork to pass through the ring of the nose plug of said at least one adjacent projectile whereby when the dolly is moved adjacent an at least one projectile and said lever is rotated about the pivot in one direction said pin may be passed through the ring, and thereafter, movement of said lever in an opposite direction will lift the at least one projectile for swinging movement into engagement with said housing, said lever comprising a pair of spaced arms on opposite sides of said frame, a U-shaped cross-piece extending across and secured to said arms above said housing member, said arms extending beyond said U-shaped cross-piece forming a center fork and a fork on each side of said center fork and aligned openings in said forks to receive said pin.
