Description
AGS-17
The AGS-17 is a heavy infantry support weapon designed to operate from a tripod or mounted on an installation or vehicle. The AGS-17 fires 30 mm grenades in either direct or indirect fire to provide suppressive and lethal fire support against soft skinned or fortified targets.
The weapon uses a blowback mechanism to sustain operation. Rounds are fired through a removable (to reduce barrel stress) rifled barrel.

This set comes with seven strips, each containing a standing manpad, an RPG18 and three RPG7s, and seven strips each containing a kneeling AGS-17 team and a prone PKM team. This set would be 5 stars but that the two teams are a challenge to make “blend in’ to your stands due to their base thicknesses. That said, the 35 standing figures are very useful and nicely fill out squads on bases with a bit of variety.
