    M79 Footage - Need Help Locating Source

    Hi guys! I've found some great footage of the M79 Grenade Launcher, and I would love to know where it is originally from. Looks to be some kind of old training films, but I can't pin down the sources. Anyone have any ideas?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    That would be the standard training film for recruits. Military made and owned.

    I believe it came from an Army TV production call "The Big Picture". Shown weekly during the 1960s.
