Dezamet Rifle Grenades
Notes: In the Warsaw Pact, only Poland, Hungary, and Italy issued rifle grenades to regular troops. The Dezamet grenades were the newer type issued to Polish and Hungarian troops. They are designed to be launched from AK-47 and AKM-type rifles without modification, and use ballistite cartridges for launching. There are four types, for different uses.

Polish Rifle Grenades
Notes: These are older Polish rifle grenades also issued to Hungarian troops. They are of post-World War 2 vintage, and require both a ballistite cartridge and an AK-47 or AKM with a special adapter or an AMD-65 to launch them. There are two types, one for antiarmor work and one for antipersonnel uses. The F-1/N60 antipersonnel grenade is little more than a Russian F-1 fragmentation grenade with an adapter to allow it to be fired.
