Abstract (en)

A device for coupling a grenade launcher (12) with an automatic rifle (10) comprises a gun fore-end (18) of the automatic rifle (10) integral to a barrel (14) of the automatic rifle and having externally a first portion of mutual shape-coupling means between a frame (36) of the grenade launcher (12) and the gun fore-end (18). A second portion of the mutual coupling means is externally associated to a frame (36) of the grenade launcher (12). The first and second portions mutually slide one inside the other along a direction which is parallel to the barrel (14) of the automatic rifle (10) in order to fasten the grenade launcher (12) to the automatic rifle (10) in a direction which is transversal to the barrel (14) of the automatic rifle (10). The first portion comprises a track (38) directly associated to the gun fore-end (18) and the second portion comprises a sliding seat (40) being defined in a frame (36) of the grenade launcher (12). The sliding seat (40) is capable of being slidingly engaged on the track (38) from the front end (38a) to the rear end (38b) of the track.
