Rare WW2 Mosin Nagant Dyakonov Grenade Launcher (inert), (semi relic condition), Dyakonov’s system consisted of a muzzle mounted launcher, grenades, a sighting device and a bipod. The 41mm grenades themselves were launched in a pretty unique way. Many rifle grenades are launched using blank ammunition. But the Dyakonov launcher used live ammunition! The grenade had a hollow tube across its length which allowed the bullet to escape through the body of the grenade. The gasses following the bullet then launched the grenade. The launcher could be used for engaging targets located at 150 to 850 meters.
