BOCN Guess what it is

It is a totally different taper than a regular M72 LAW rocket. Be more specific.

M72A9 ASM (Anti Structure Munition) - the top one in the photo?

Sorry Dave, it's not the A9. The ogive of this one seems longer. The standoff distance is important to get the proper penetration.

Ammocat, you are correct! The M72A4 also known as the Improved LAW. Shown in the photo with a standard M72 LAW Rocket and a CS rocket for riot use from the M202 FLASH (FLame Assault SHoulder Weapon (4 Round Launcher).

Ammocat, over to you.

I kind of feel like I cheated with the hints in the last few posts. Any way, lets try this one.

Correct, that probably sets the fastest record for a correct answer. I knew I should have used the photo of the C-6 Trip Flare.

I didn't have my photos handy so I hijacked this one from the net.
Over to Slick.
 
Whew! Finally got one. Not having a clue about the previous 99% of items up for guessing, I was beginning to reconsider my collecting habits.
Without further ado:

No. Neither. A direct fire weapon system that you wouldn't want to stand behind when it went off.

The last pic looks like a 20mm flak but I think I'm wrong. Quite stumped on this one as my main interest is grenades.
 
Is it a 20mm Oerlikon round ? gots lots of very nice grenades there. I dug 2500 no 69 grenades out of a blokes garden that's what got me started on grenades really.
