What weapon is this?
« on: March 18, 2003, 06:55:22 AM »


The guy in the middle. I'm pretty sure the guy to the left has a M-136 or AT-4 (Swedish weapon you know). But what on earth is that thing the guy in the middle has?

MBT LAW?
Is that the latest designation on that one?

It is a one shot disposable anti tank weapon made in Sweden. Here it is called "Pansarskott m/86" (the translation would be something like "Anti tank weapon, model 86")

I know that it was called AT-4 before, and/or M-136, but I did not know it had been changed again.

Its a great weapon though.

So the guy in the middle attaches his thing/sight to the AT-4 on the back of the guy to the left? Is that it?

LOL, let me put all this crap and guessing to rest.


The guy on the left has a AT4 (or M136, same thing). It is one shot and throw away.

The guy in the middle has a FGM-77 Dragon anti-tank missile system. You can see the bipod legs at the upper left of the tube. It is a training weapon, the protective foam on the sight and the rear of the tube is missing.

They still use Dragons? I rem those things.... dont they make that clicking sound as they naviagate vie wire to the target w/those mini rockets correcting the path?

Its been a ALONG time.
Of course, I only see what he posts here and what he does in the MA.  I know virtually nothing about the man.  I think its important for people to realize that we don't really know squat about each other.... definately not enough to use words like "hate".

Thats not a dragon.
The marines adopted an Isreali weapon many years ago called the B300 I believe.  It is primarily an anti fortification weapon that uses seperate ammo like that thing looks like it must. Thats all I could guess. The AT4 on the left is not related I think.

US should never have given up on Recoiless rifles. The 84mm Carl Gustav was about the best infantry heavy weapon ever made.

Those aren't Marines, and the Marines use a version of the M136 for anti-fortification work.
