#RPG-2

Wild Arms Research & Development should ring a few bells by now around here at TFB. We’ve worked with Johnny Wild in the past when he was first developing his DIY Panzerfaust project, and we’ve also seen him through every step of the process when it came to his newest Fliegerfaust project. Now Johnny has a new project with the development of his homemade RPG-2/Panzerfaust hybrid launcher. Johnny has just informed TFB that he’s completed the development of new chalk rounds for the launcher. More details are below.

Atlantic Firearms just announced that they have imported used, but now inert, RPG-2 recoilless launchers that are now for sale. The surplus RPG-2 (which are recoilless weapon not rocket launchers as many believe) have a circular hole cut into the receiver to make them inoperative, and incapable of being reactivated. They will also come with a dummy rocket, though Atlantic Firearm’s CEO, Blaine, explained that they will have dummy rockets available separately as well, and the RPG-2’s will have a standalone option as well. Atlantic Firearms’ description can be read below, followed by Blaine’s descriptive video.

It’s 1968, the Cold War has gone hot and you’re a British soldier somewhere in northwest Germany. The 3rd Shock Army is coming straight at you and you’re trying to decide if the Soviet motor rifle regiment infantry attacking your defensive position is bringing up a DShK or an SGM. You reach for your trusty copy of Recognition Handbook Foreign Weapons and Equipment (USSR) Group III Infantry Weapons.
