I set up my display "US Military Rifle Grenades and Rifle Grenade Launchers, WWI to Vietnam" at the 2011 OGCA Display Show last month. It was a lot of work but also great fun. I was very honored to win the Best Educational Award and the Member's Choice Award.

Your display is premo! The best display in regards to US rifle grenades and launchers I have ever seen, FANTASTIC! :w00t:

I also love the M-79 and it's different rounds in the case!

latewatch, great display!!

 

BTW if you have a m8 grenade launcher fot the M1 carbine you wouldn't mind selling, I would be very interested in buying one for my carbine collection.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I try and put it together about once a year with whatever improvements I can come up with.

I just found this thread through a search, and I'm glad I did. Displays like this remind me that I'm not crazy for seeking variations of the same item. When they can be assembled and displayed like this, they serve a great educational purpose. Thanks for posting photos of this... It is fantastic.

Fantistic display. No wonder I can't find any launchers at shows anymore. :crying: Ray

 

 

Don't feel all alone Ray. Good launchers and related items are getting real hard ro find. The search continues.....

That is/was truly a great display. The first time I saw it at Louisville I knew it was in another league.... This should be in the pinned reference area too!
