Identification Help

BLU-77

New Member
Hello,

Can anyone positively ID this piece? I've been told it is a Yugoslavian rifle grenade launcher but have been unable to locate any information on it (nomenclature, years in service, etc). The ruler in the background is 18 inches long and i apologize for the reflection of the flash making it difficult to read. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

could this be the laucher to the yofgo air launched 60mm I posted? just a question
 
Weberoed,

I don't think it is the launcher for that 60mm mortar because it doesn't look like it uses compressed air to project ordnance down range.

The T-handles on the launcher unscrew and it appears a blank cartridge would be inserted. The projectile would then slide over the end of the launcher and the spring loaded T-handle pulled back and released to function the cartridge (theres a small firing pin in there).
