Hello,
Lot of pictures on the web of short range device for RPG-7 (7.62x39mm)
Different colors, yellow, red, green, etc.
What is the maker (country) of these devices ?
Is it for a military use ?
Regards

Czechoslovakia made two variants of the inserts with yellow "warhead".
They were used for training with a special short range tracer round 7,62-Zm 43.

Hello Bob,
can you please tell us the difference between the two Czech versions?

The VH-7 had a shotgun like break action (I had a picture somewhere, but I can't find it now)
VH-7A has a bayonet type action. (Trained with this one many years ago)

Hello Bob,
thank you for your answer - I only knew the VH-7A with the bayonet type action and thought that you're talking as the second version about the russian type PUS-7 with bolt action type.
So a picture of the other one would be very welcome if you find it.
