Rifle Grenade General Service
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Rifle Grenade General Service (RGGS) is a rifle grenade in service with the British Army since 1996.[1]
The grenade is of the bullet-trap type and is launched from the muzzle of the L85A2 rifle using standard ball ammunition. For maximum accuracy a dedicated prismatic sight can be attached to the rifle.[1]
The grenade will be phased out of service due to the introduction of the L17A2 Under-slung Grenade Launcher .[2]
