ABSTRACT:
Our invention comprises a launcher which takes the form of a holster carried firearm and a rocket propelled missile slidably mounted within the launcher. Features of our invention include electrical ignition of the rocket propelled missile, waterproof electrical connectors and switches, an impact actuated warhead, a warhead firing mechanism, electrical and mechanical safety devices, and automatic warhead arming upon rocket motor ignition. Additional features include rapid reload capability, illuminated sight lights, ease of carry and one hand operation. Our design incorporates only two moving parts in the launcher, and one moving part sealed within the missile body. Advantageously, none of the components are subject to corrosion or contamination, and no special materials are necessary in its fabrication.
