The cover of the manual claims to describe the M72A1, M72A2 and M72, however, inside the pam, it describes only differences between the M72A1 and M72C7. These differences mostly relate to front and rear sight assemblies.

This unit is unique in that it has an inert rocket inside the tube.

30 Years ago I gave a spent launcher to my 10 year old nephew..to play Army with..He was the King Of the Castle with his rocket launcher..
Wasn't long before the local RCMP were around checking it out...
They let him keep it..
There are a few differences and variants..
Here they are..at least some of them..
