mrf2, I was thinking that the aussie's also used the brit made unit... maybe some of our Oz/Nz members can verify this... but if that is the case, Entreprise Arms has them listed in their L!A1 parts section of their website. Here ya go, found em... HTH's Butch |

The grenade launcher is the same for the Australian, British and Canadian rifles. It's called the L1A2 Grenade Launcher. The launchers are as scarce as hens teeth in New Zealand and most likely in Australia too as they were withdrawn from service in the 60's and relegated to use with just the Navy for line throwing. MrF23 if you get one from Entreprise Arms could you post some pictures of it and detail any markings on it please, I would be interested to see exactly what they have. |

kevin, What is the police viewpoint on ownership of a grenade launcher?. Does the launcher change the capability of the rifle? |

By the letter of the law 'grenade launchers' are a 'Restricted item' and such should be held on a 'C' endorsement. As far as I know the cops aren't worried about this type of grenade launcher the law is written to classify things like M203 and M79 type weapons. If they were to clamp down on all grenade launchers then they would have to make you remove any 22mm combo device on any rifle such as MAS, FAL, AR15's, G3 etc then there are all the clip on grenade launchers for the .303's, Mausers etc. It would be unworkable and is why they don't in-force it. I got my first L1A2 launcher from you wingnut  |
