Claim:
A projectile-loading assembly ( 1 ) of an air-powered gun for loading projectiles ( 3 ) one by one into a barrel ( 4 ) of the air-powered gun and comprising: a magazine module ( 10 ) comprising a projectile chamber ( 11 ) for accommodating the projectiles ( 3 ), a rail tube ( 14 ) located over the projectile chamber ( 11 ) to be aligned with the barrel ( 4 ), and a projectile-loading block ( 15 ) slidably mounted on the rail tube ( 14 ); and a slider module ( 20 ) for sliding forwards or rearwards with respect to the barrel ( 4 ), the slider module ( 20 ) comprising: a spring ( 21 ) for pushing the projectile-loading block ( 15 ) to depart from the barrel ( 4 ), and an elastic piece ( 22 ) for pushing the projectile-loading block ( 15 ) to approach the barrel ( 4 ); wherein the elastic piece ( 22 ) pushes the projectile-loading block ( 15 ) to slide toward the barrel ( 4 ) along the rail tube ( 14 ) when the slider module ( 20 ) slides forwards, thereby pushing one projectile ( 3 ) into the barrel ( 4 ) while closing the projectile chamber ( 11 ).
