You can have hand-grenades, street-sweepers with a 12" barrel, and RPGs if you like also.

Just remember that EACH pull of that trigger will cost you a $200 tax stamp, the cost of the DD as well as the time waiting for said tax stamp....

You can re-load the RPG rounds also as long as they don't blow up. Costs about $2.50 to do a drum dump from a street sweeper.

I usually check on ARFCOM in the "Armory" There is tons of info on Destructive Devices in there. Not sure how to break it down really. Destructive Devices have always been legal in WA. 40mm grenade launchers run about $1,500-$1,900. LMT sells them, Knights, Sage, Penn. There are several rounds you can fire un-restricted. Chalk, Smoke grenades, flares, CS. The ones that blow up cars are the only ones that you have to pay an extra $200 stamp per round. RPGs can be fired also un-restricted unless you can afford an anti-personnel round. I don't know how much those cost, but the RPG is about $2500-$3,500. Check Sturm. You can use inert RPG rounds and reload them (without the EXPLODING bits). They use blackpowder as a propellant. You can use them over and over. Just dont launch them over a big hill and lose them. Then there is 20mm.......... Here is one next to a .50BMG to compare.
