The type of Chinese-manufactured heavy machine gun imported for the use of the armed wing of the APC, the OSD police

 

 

The 40mm under barrel grenade launcher imported for use by the armed wing of the APC, the OSD police. Kindly note the two sets of triggers on the gun. One is for firing AK-47 bullets while the other is for discharging grenades of any type suitable for the occasion.

This is the device, the grenade launcher that will give the handler extra punch power needed to clear obstacles as well as taking out groups of people. Its separate trigger ensures that firing grenades will be a deliberate act of using more fire power.

The Norinco-manufactured NP-18 pistol with a 10-shot magazine is expected to be distributed to all APC party functionaries as part of a programme of intimidation and fear-inducing tactics. Pistols from Eastern Europe were distributed to APC members during the Stevens and Momoh era with the Youth Wing of the APC using it to good effect in cowering the opposition and even perceived opponents within the APC.
