sakto bro. naa lng ni cya grenade launcher so tawag ni nya "Corner Shot Launcher"
CornerShot is a weapon accessory invented by Lt. Col. Amos Golan of the Israeli Defense Forces in cooperation with American investors. It was designed in the early 2000s for SWAT teams and special forces in hostile situations usually involving terrorists and hostages. Its purpose is similar to that of the periscope rifle; it allows its operator to both see and attack an armed target, without exposing the operator to counterattack.
The concept was first developed by Nazi Germany in WWII in the form of the StG-44's Krummlauf, a curved barrel with a mounted mirror developed for urban warfare; However, a similar concept was developed by Australian troops in the trenches of WW1's Western front. This early idea was simply a specialised 'second' stock and trigger mechanism combined with a periscope to allow the user to remain within the trench while the rifle was laid over the top of the trench.
The CornerShot variations developed so far are the Standard, the 40 mm grenade launcher, the APR, and a derived anti-tank version. It works because its many parts are either on the muzzle or the butt end, which are connected by a steel hinge. It is manufactured by Corner Shot Holdings, LLC, a company headed in Miami with an office in Israel. There is another separate manufacturer for the cornershot in France called OMEGA-Cornershot . Units have been sold in 15 countries. The CornerShot was recentlly evaluated by the UK Ministry of Defence.
