An air-powered toy gun, comprising: a main housing with a barrel extending therefrom, the main housing formed to accept a projectile cartridge and align a bullet chamber of the cartridge with the barrel; an air cylinder attached with the main housing; a two-way plunger positioned within the air cylinder; a forestock slidably attached with the housing and attached with the two-way plunger to allow the two-way plunger to be forced fore and at within the air cylinder; conduits attached with the air cylinder to fluidly connect the air cylinder with the bullet chamber of a cartridge when a cartridge is positioned within the main housing; wherein the conduits are attached with both the front and rear of the air cylinder to direct air pressure from both fore and aft motion of the two-way plunger through the conduits and toward a cartridge positioned within the main housing; and an indexing mechanism attached with the main housing, the indexing mechanism operably connected with the forestock such that upon each fore motion of the forestock, the indexing mechanism draws a cartridge through the main housing, and upon each aft motion of the forestock, the indexing mechanism draws another cartridge through the main housing.
