  @endyn Actually, thats a Swedish anti-tankweapon. =) We Swedes hardly ever fire it during training though, just because there is a small (incredibly small) chance that this can happen. Never seen it happen before though.

  @endyn Deecoop88 go back to your toys. Pellebandy is right. They are a bit unreliable. I'm reading this right out the "field manual".

It Can Happen: its an AT-4 all right and that can happent ive fired em here and there in the Marine corps and ive never seen it happen until now, but the AT-4 tube (what you see bein picked up) is made of fiberglass so the tube can be destroyed after use to prevent the enemy using it (i.e. IED container in iraq) so any imperfection will cause a catastrophic failure upon firing it

  @xMARINEx Nice post: but wtf are you talking about? The container didn't fail, brainchild. The propellant misfired. You sure you were in the marines? Oh wait.. that's why.

  @Mr_Tideman Retards: If the thing went "boom" as you so eloquently put it... don't you think more than just a puff of smoke would have happened? That was a propellant misfire.. the grenade was still in the chamber and yes, the retard picks it up and walks around with it, endangering himself and his squad.

  @Mr_Tideman It's not a grenade launcher, there's no grenade in to go off: If you're going to talk about something you know absolutely nothing about, then don't be condescending and demeaning. It makes you look pretty stupid.

Could the user who posted the video please contact me? Is the Gunner ok?: The AT4 is not a rocket, its a projectile. And its about 20 years old. You can tell its plain M136 AT4 by the molded venturi. When did this incident occur? It looks like the round never went downrange, and hence no setback to arm the fuze (thank god) at the distance it becomes armed. Its likely that the round was somehow stuck in the barrel, and the pressure from the propellant excessively built up and caused the barrel to burs

  @hbykyngen Sadly: When we Americans respond to hostile posts, we only further the belief that we're uneducated slobs. I have to agree given the level if intellect displayed in about 99% of the posts I see on here. You make it hard to defend yourself with information you dilute with your delivery.

  @lowzone1 Lense cap...: Not that I even know what a "lense" is, but I'm sure there isn't a cap on the weapon. 3 safeties, but no cap. If that was an attempt at humor.. what can I say.. try harder.

  @epic_phantom not really: the rocket launcher broke but the rocket didn't explode. if it did and that marine didn't die. it would be pretty ineffective

  @epic_phantom LoL: The AT4 is anti equipment munition, not anti personnel.. it would handily obliterate a person (if you can imagine a rather large grenade being shot into you at high velocity then exploding.. ) so no, the grenade did NOT explode. And yes, GRENADE (rocket propelled grenade - RPG)

so...: If the rocket didnt launch wouldnt the explosive head still be in there?That seemed like a propellant explosion not a ordinance one didnt it? Mean while that dumb ass walks over picks it up and carries it around.

  @BigGunnz Yes because: nobody would have expected the munition to travel downrange at a high velocity. They should have waited to see if it would jam up and misfire.. since that happens all the time... idiot.
