RPG7 Rocket Launcher
This is the "infamous" RPG7, an anti-tank infantry weapon. This particular piece is completely inert, it has a large hole torch cut in the body, the firing pin hole has been drilled out & a pin welded in place to deform it, luckily once the handguards etc are in place it displays well.
