"Popular": Chelyabinsk residents have improved a new mortar for the Kalashnikov assault rifle

It helps to throw a hand grenade at a distance of up to 120 meters

The Miass enterprises "KTBMash" and "Farmplast" have created an experimental device for throwing hand grenades using a Kalashnikov assault rifle.

The Russian military already had similar devices, but Chelyabinsk residents improved and modernized the design

The mortar (aka "glass") allows you to throw a grenade in close combat to where a fighter would not send it manually - for tens of meters. However, it can be made more convenient and perfect, and more "long-range".

The first version has already been tested in combat conditions by GRU fighters and intelligence. Based on their observations and wishes, the specialists of the enterprises have improved the device. With its help, a grenade can be sent to a distance of up to 120 meters. The mortar is indispensable for close combat.
