    The RPG-7 arrived by UPS today.

    RPG with rocket grenade unloaded

    With Iron sights deployed

    Size comparison

    Construction is full metal and real wood.

    Weight, heavy! 17.6lbs, that's just a few pounds lighter then most GPMG's :eek: Nice!

    Takes any 40mm Airsoft grenade.

    The RPG hammer acts as a safety, you have to pull it back before you can pull the trigger. Nice feature.

    The iron sights lock open so they won't fall closed when moving around.

    The fluting of the rocket grenade is very long, longer then an M203 barrel, should act as a good choke for the BB's.

    Has sling points, I'll need them for hauling this thing around ;)

    *Edit*

    The only place I know of to buy these is http://www.landwarriorairsoft.com/acatalog/Grenades_and_Anti-Personnel.html#a227 they are out of stock, have been for months now. I don't know if ASG is doing a second run of RPG's, you'd have to email Landwarrior and ask.

    M72 V RPG: M72 wins. And its only $350 in Metal, under $200 in ABS:D

    I dunno WTF happened though.

    Customs officer:
    MP7, send it to Ballistics
    RPG, clear it.

    Like comon FFS.

    It uses pellets too. The inserted airsoft grenade has a series of barrels filled with 6mm BB's that are propelled by gas. The rocket grenade stays in place, the BB's fire out the front.

    Ok, I admit, it looks damn cool, but in terms of Combat efficiency, F that. Why not just use a 203? I'tll be good for scenarios though...Boom goes the Bus kinda thing :)

    Yep, bought it off a guy on Red Alliance. He only used it once and now is selling some of his gear because he needs a deposit for a house. The RPG's are sold out on the main dealer so I was lucky to get it. Probably the only one in Ireland :D

    Because I don't use non-progresive equipment :D (Red Alliance joke) I have a GP-30 so I have that option. I bought it more for mil-sim games when they eventually kick off in Ireland.
