Perhaps we should call this the Dien Bien Phu’zooka’! After WWII, the French army rebuilt itself with many U.S. arms, but they excelled with some of their own, like the MAT49 SMG and the LRAC-50 Bazooka. This rocket launcher fired a 73mm round and was used in such places as the French Indochina War, Algerian War, and could be found at most quiet Foreign Legion outposts like Tahiti and Djibouti. Nevertheless, as armor vehicles improved, the LRAC was slowly replaced by the U.S. 3.5" “Super Bazooka”, and others in the 1960's. Our deactivated rocket launcher is original, has a hole equal to the bore diameter drilled in it and a restriction installed in the chamber per BATF rules. This unit has a pistol grip installed, blast shield with glass inserts and optical elbow telescope. To our knowledge, this is the first time they have been offered and quantities are very limited so you should act quickly to make sure you get one!
Note: While we sold out of these a year ago, we have found one remaining LRAC-50 which we are selling an original LRAC-50 with original accessories like the French Canvas LRAC Cover (almost non existent today), French ammunition canvas vest which hangs off front and back of an individual, a reproduction 73mm LRAC rocket and sling. This may be your last chance to obtain this item as they have not come into the country since the 1980s and there are no more to be found overseas. The end of an era !
