A rotary storage magazine located immediately below the level of the deck of a vehicle or structure, usable such that munitions may be stored and thereafter quickly delivered on an as-needed basis to an intermediate position for the reloading of a weapon. This intermediate position can be on the deck, alongside the weapon to be reloaded, or else outboard of the weapon. Our rotary storage magazine comprises fore and aft rotary support devices disposed immediately below deck level a spaced distance apart, which distance is less than the length of the munitions to be stored. The rotary support devices each have a plurality of support arms, such that munitions disposed in a generally parallel array may be cradled between corresponding support arms of the fore and aft rotary support devices. The rotary support devices have a common axis of rotation, and we provide electric power for driving these devices in one rotative direction during the loading of munitions into the storage magazine, and for driving these devices in the opposite direction during the delivery of the munitions to the vehicle's deck level. Releasable restraint arms on the support arms of the rotary support devices prevent dislodgment of the munitions during rotation of the rotary support devices.
