| The GP-30 underbarrel
grenade launcher is intended for destroying manpower in open
country or in uncovered trenches/foxholes, as well as on reverse
slopes by direct and indirect fire, using the VOG-25 and VOG-25P
caseless fragmentation rounds.
Being muzzle-loaded, the GP-30 enables to increase
practical rate of fire 2-3 times compared with the US 40mm
M203. The trigger mechanism is of double action.
The grenade launcher comes equipped with a
leaf sight, which is used to correct grenade drift. Unlike
the GP-25, the sight is mounted on the right side and requires
no range adjustment.
