🧵Some stuff I've picked up from the 🇰🇵 parade yesterday (will be adding to it progressively). Starting off with this thing. Some kind of magazine fed self-loading grenade launcher perhaps ?

Grappling hook rifle grenade (actually pretty cool ngl)

Plenty of helical magazines abound as well, fitted to various models of the Type 88 rifles.

🇰🇵's K11 clone is still kicking about. AFAIK, the K11 project has been suspended in 🇰🇷.

High-cut helmets, NVGs and what looks like suppressed bullpup Type 88s.

Pretty large calibre shoulder-fired, disposable weapon. IIRC not entirely new, was observed in previous parades (but could be wrong on that).

KPA snipers with suppressed M76 clones.

Type 88 overfolders (Type 98 ?) with helical drum magazines.

Vehicle crewmen with SBR Type 88s. Scope does not make much sense for this role, but could be just to look ally on the parade grounds.

These odd-looking, fairly large, grenade projectors make an appearance again. @historicfirearm PIAT vibes for sure !

Another good shot of the SF looking guys with their suppressed bullpups.

More shots of the new disposable LAW. Overall length is not as long as expected. I'd say 105 mm or plus for the calibre.

Close-up of the GL I started this thread with. Bolt-action it would appear.

More of those weird rifle-like projectors firing PG-7 type projectiles.
