Firing indicator device for a projectile, and rifle grenade equipped with a firing indicator device

摘要

A single-use firing indicator device for a projectile having a hollow rear extension includes a stopper and an indicator member. The stopper is shaped to at least partially cover the rear extension of the projectile. The indicator member is connected to the stopper and may secure the firing indicator device to the projectile. Removing the firing indicator device to prepare the projectile for firing requires permanently deforming the indicator member. As a result, the firing indicator device reliably conveys the firing status of the projectile without requiring costly modification or added parts.
