W.P.and a small Flame or something like a small Napalm projectile..you had to pull it on either end to extend it...it was a square thing 4 shots to the weapon...you took the end caps off. the trigger flipped down from the housing so did the sights...does or do any of you 0351 remember this weapon which had a short life span in the Corps.....:marine:

While I was in The Marine Corps was having trouble with the firing mech. When you pulled the trigger all four rockets would fire. some Marines were injured.

I shot a M202 Multi-flame weapon in 1975 at Quantico during training. We called it the Multi-flame weapon and you could fire 1 or all 4 pods at once.
