A dispensing device for cartridges having a trigger grip for operating a valve of the dispensing device, a connection for supplying a pressurised gas, a cartridge connector for connecting a cartridge, and a base body, in which at least one passage extends through such that pressurised gas can be guided to the cartridge connector. The cartridge connector comprises an opening towards the passage such that the content can be expelled from the cartridge upon application of the pressurised gas to the floor of a cartridge when the cartridge is arranged in the cartridge connector, and wherein the passage can be closed and opened through the operated valve. The valve has a valve body that is arranged in the base body in a rotatable manner, wherein a motion of the trigger grip leads to a rotation of the valve body in the base body. The passage is arranged in or on the valve body such that the passage is closed in a first position of the valve body and the passage in or on the valve body guides the pressurised gas to the cartridge connector in a second position of the valve body.
