For today's post, we have two spare parts lists for the Swedish 7,62 mm automatkarbin 4, the Heckler & Koch G3, and the
8,4 cm Granatgevär m/48B and m/48C, the 84mm Carl Gustaf.The G3 has a fair few accessories, such as a bayonet, cleaning kit, .22 conversion kit, and Hensoldt 4×24 scope.
The Carl Gustaf is a weapon worth expanding on in terms of the organisation surrounding it. With a Skyttepluton consisting of an HQ element, three Skyttegrupper and a Granatgevärsgrupp , the latter was equipped with two launchers, and organised as such :
