The RWGŁ-3 is a non-lethal police rifle grenade launcher used to dispense tear gas, developed in the 1970s by a group of engineers from the state-owned research institute OBR Radom. In order to cut production costs it was designed around AKM assault rifle components. After several years' worth operational use of expensive RWGŁ-1 pl:Granatnik RWGŁ-1 and failed RWGŁ-2 development project, in 1978 it became a standard-issue grenade launcher of Milicja Obywatelska and stays in use by current Policja. In 1984 its capabilities were enhanced by SZO-84 adapter, effectively converting it into a netgun.

abstract
  • The RWGŁ-3 is a non-lethal police rifle grenade launcher used to dispense tear gas, developed in the 1970s by a group of engineers from the state-owned research institute OBR Radom. In order to cut production costs it was designed around AKM assault rifle components. After several years' worth operational use of expensive RWGŁ-1 pl:Granatnik RWGŁ-1 and failed RWGŁ-2 development project, in 1978 it became a standard-issue grenade launcher of Milicja Obywatelska and stays in use by current Policja. Its regular ammunition is Polish UGŁ-200 canister with affecting mucous membranes CN gas, however use of East Germany RWK grenade was possible too. In 1984 its capabilities were enhanced by SZO-84 adapter, effectively converting it into a netgun. Basing on RWGŁ-3 a heavier automatic grenade launcher was developed to be mounted on UAZ-469 and STAR trucks.
