Gernade launching system for Mosin Nagant... - Page 2

blaster · 04-30-2008, 12:25 PM

I bought a surplus U.S. grenade launcher and some 7.62x39 and .308 blanks at a gun show a while ago. I've only shot it once from my sks. no grenade or tennis ball in it. I didn't give it much elevation and it went about 100 yds. can't wait to really play with it.

Cheaper than Dirt has sweet golfball grenade launchers for AR-15, they look cool.

Mmmmm, might want to consult the guys that were there on that one Cy. I know the rifle grenades for the 1903 were fired by bracing the butt on the ground and fired similar to mortar. I could be wrong though. So, please correct me if I am.

obviously you've never seen a sight for grenade launching on the side of the stock, or the rubber buttplate for it, grenades WERE shoulder fired from the M1 garand.

Well I figure they can be used from either shoulder or ground mount, either way it still goes boom.

I used to have an 40mm grenade gun/launcher, but the Coast Guard wanted it back when I got out. I loved that thing. All I had in the Navy was torpedos... not very portable.
