Original Note:
CN is relevant. The RPG-7 lacks a firing pin assembly above the hammer, which is ground off and welded shut while decommissioning. The ammunition lacks a booster charge. https://axolotlarms.com/product/rpg-7-inert/ https://x.com/Wild_Arms_RandD/status/1885772891855421468 https://x.com/Wild_Arms_RandD/status/1885816530127958088 ATF regulates firearms that can "expel a projectile by the action of an explosive."
