Background
RPG-7
The RPG-7 (Wiki, List) is an iconic weapon and is a close relative of the Bazooka.
Propellant Burn Rate
In the case of the Bazooka a fast burning propellant will be used up by the time the rocket leaves the launch tube so there's not a problem for the shooter. The Bazooka designers went to a lot of trouble to get a reliable very fast burning propellant for just this reason. The Panzerfaust (Wiki, Ref 1, Ref 4, Ref 13, Ref 14) also used a fast burning propellant. The YouTube: Firing A Panzerfaust, 3:05, shows the shooter dropping the just fired empty tube because it's very hot. The Panzerfaust has a one time use launching tube. Note that rockets with fast burning propellant are guided during the burn and leave the launch tube at high velocity where the rear fins will work. (see: Rocket Stability)
Slow burning propellants require some way to protect the shooter from getting a face full of flames. The German Panzerschreck (Wiki) 1943 - 1945, used a conventional slow burning rocket propellant and protected the soldier with a metal shield with a sighting window. The MB Associates GyroJet has a slow burning propellant and can singe the hand of the person holding the pistol. Slow burning propellants are easy to make.
Launch Bore Diameter v. HEAT Diameter
A big problem with the original M1A1 Bazooka was that the diameter of the explosive needed to fit into the 2.36" (60mm) tube since the round is loaded at the rear and comes out of the front of the tube. It turns out that was too small so the next generation Bazooka, the M20, had a 3.5" (89mm) tube. This was an improvement, but the projectile still needed to fit into the tube.
A way around the bore diameter limitation is to have the shaped charge outside and in front of the launch tube, i.e. front loading. The Panzerfaust pioneered this and the Russian designers of the RPG series weapons copied it.
Launch Tube increases Back Pressure
The Folding Fin Aircraft Rocket (Wiki: FFAR) has folding fins because it's launched from a tube and by folding the fins more tubes can be fitted into a pod. Firing a rocket from a tube gives more muzzle velocity than firing the same rocket from a zero length launch rail or a rod. So for shoulder fired missiles using a tube has a performance advantage, i.e. there is more pressure in the tube. See Rocket Launchers (Tube v. Rail).
RPG-2
Added this section because there's a misunderstanding about it being a "rocket". It is not.
RPG has been mistakenly translated into Rocket Propelled Grenade. This is true for the RPG-7, but the actual Russian words translate into " Handheld Antitank Grenade Launcher" (Ref 8). Note "Rocket" is not part of the name! This has caused a lot of misunderstanding.
RPG-2
Note male threads at rear to attach propelling black powder charge. See Fig 8T below for the RPG-7 projectile which may use the same threads?
Note there is no rocket nozzle at the back end.
Note there is no rocket nozzle. The body is called a "stabilizer tube"
The RPG-1 (Wiki) 30mm tube led to the RPG-2 (Wiki) 40mm tube which was much improved over the U.S. Bazookas in many ways. It's interesting that theRPG-7 tube inside diameter is 40mm. The RPG-2 has neither an expansion chamber nor a rear trumpet. It has a single hand grip. A literal translation of the Russian name is "Handheld Antitank Grenade Launcher". Notice the word rocket is not present and that's the case even though the letters are RPG, there is no "rocket" involved. It is really a recoilless rifle (Wiki). In Ref 7 which shows slow motion of both the RPG-2 and RPG-7 firing you do not see any rocket, just the initial black powder blast, for the RPG-2, But the RPG-7 firing shows both the black powder launch and later down range the rocket. Note the PRG-7 has a much flatter trajectory. The RPG-2 is more like a mortar (Wiki).
There are numerous YouTube videos and web pages saying the RPG-2 is a rocket propelled grenade, but that's not the case. If you have a de-mil RPG-2 round that I can study let me know.
Description
This is a real RPG-7v that has been demiled by cutting a hole in the tube (hidden under the wood) and welding a rod (at the location of the firing pin) that prevents installing a rocket.
RPG-7v Launcher
Introduced in 1961 and over nine million made since. Hence it's iconic status.
The "V" in RPG-7V means it has the mount for optical, IR or passive night vision. This RPG-7V does not have the letter "N" so the mount for a 1PN51 or other Night vision sight is not present. The launcher contains neither battery nor compressed gas so is reusable without needing external supplies. The firing mechanism is similar to a firearm, i.e. hammer hits striker which hits primer on rocket.
The front of the tube is 40mm (actually 39.9 mm) inside diameter going back 10". This section acts as a barrel to guide the rocket.
The expansion chamber is 2.3" ID for a length of 12". This is where the booster gas expands lowering the pressure.
At the back of the expansion chamber there's a restriction that's less than 40mm ID.
The rear 40mm ID section that's 6" long that leads to the cone.
The rear trumpet cone is about 6" long with a mouth that's 3.25" ID. I think the purpose is to make this a recoilless system (Wiki). Note if the tube was closed on the rear end there would be massive recoil (Wiki). also see Wiki: Rocket engine which is concerned with maximizing thrust which would help the RPG-7 counter recoil.
The flat flange is 4.5" OD.
U.S. Version
AirTronic makes the PSRL-1 (Wiki) which is a made in America version of the RPG-7.
9733039 Debris control apparatus, Ryan Mezynski, Mike Byars, Airtronic USA, 2017-08-15, -
adds hinged caps to front and rear tube openings.
There already are slip over front and rear caps.
PGO-7 Reflex Sight
It turns out that there is a green PGO-7 sight that looks like it should work, but the mounting rail is too small to fit the RPG-7v.
The PGO-7 bears a strong family resemblance to the PSO-1M2 Dragunov (Wiki: SVD) scope

See Ref
RPG Rockets
Instead of using a very fast burning propellant, like in the Bazooka, a booster charge is used to push the round from the tube and the rocket motor ignites after the round is 5 or 7 meters away.
See Figures 6, 7 & 8 below.
Some comments related to Ref 1 are about "windmilling". The idea that a cross wind pushes on the large tail fins turning the rocket into the wind. This is opposite to how wind effects bullets. Also note some missiles, like the Shrike, that have the fins at the center of mass would move sideways because of wind rather than turning like a missile with tail fins.
When the primer fires it lights the time delay fuse for the rocket motor and instantly sets off the explosive gas generator (probably black powder) that launches the rocket from the tube. The rocket motor must have a hollow core to allow gases to exit at the front end of the rocket through the angled nozzles.

40mm Bore Sight Tool
This fits into the front of the barrel pretty much like the rocket body including a small pin to locate it in rotation (see Fig 2 below). It is for the PGO-7 since the iron sights are non adjustable.
The cross hairs are at the very front (see Fig 2 below) and at the back there is an "X" shaped peep hole (Fig 1 below). BUT . . . you can not get your eye behind the sight tool when it's installed in the RPG-7..
Fig 1 Has (+) shaped hole in back end.
Fig 2 Front end has locating pin for rotational alignment
At very front there are 4 notches, probably for cross hairs.
This probably would work for any RPG with a 40mm bore.
Note it is not seated because the DeMil rod welded at the firing pin location prevents a rocket or sight tool from fully seating.
Night Vision Sights: Floodlight IR NSP-2 or PGN-1 Starlight
YouTube: RPG 7: Zeroing, (Ref 19) - method 1: make cross hairs on both ends of tube when these are aligned with a target at 130m the top, by itself, cross should point to the same target.
The ballistics of the common round match 7.62x39 (Wiki) tracer ammunition and so they can be used for training. See Ref 25.

2409427 Equilibrated rocket shell, Fonberg Zygmunt, App: 1943-07-01, W.W.II, Pub: 1946-10-15, - "It is known that up to now rocket shells have been very inaccurate if the action of propulsion has been maintained after the shell has left the slide or barrel which has directed the shell's initial movement. The present arrangement of giving a rocket shell a rotative movement eliminates the above mentioned inconvenience. The shell's rotative movement can be produced by spades (blades/fins) K4 placed at a proper angle as Shown in Figure 1 and the initial direction can be given by a well known barrel (not shown) inside of which the shell moves. The shell has to be given sufficient propulsion and rotative movement while in said barrel to maintain its direction."
2412173 Projectile, Winslow B Pope, Sec of War, App: 1944-02-22, W.W.II, Pub: 1946-12-03, - "Various devices of the reaction propulsion or rocket type have been heretofore proposed, among which there is one type which embodies a tubular casing secured to the rearward end of the projectile proper for housing the propelling charge and having its trailing end contoured to provide an axially opening Venturi passage. In such a device, the gases flowing through the Venturi passage, due to uneven burning of the charge, or for other reasons, may flow slightly off center through the Venturi passage. Such off-center flow or shifting of the flow of gases from truly axial flow during the flight of the projectile will cause the projectile to deviate from a true predetermined course."
2421522 Rocket projector and projectile, Winslow B Pope, Sec of War, App: 1944-08-23, W.W.II, Pub: 1947-06-03, - rocket in recoiless gun tube - "It is the object of the present invention to provide a new and novel arrangement whereby a rocket projectile may first be set in fight by means other than its propelling charge and at a predetermined point in the flight, or distance from the objective, the propelling charge of the rocket projectile ignited with the result that the speed of travel of the projectile is increased, thus providing for greater striking force or range or both." - This is the RPG-7 idea.
When propellant (26) explodes it both pushes the rocket (39) out of the rifled barrel and hot gases exit the de Laval nozzle (Wiki) balancing recoil.
Note Goddard's 1913 patent 1102653 uses explosive disks (12) and the de Laval nozzle (11) where the length of the nozzle is at least three times its maximum diameter. He uses separate directed explosives to get the rocket spinning.
Way more complex than the RPG-2 or RPG-7, but pretty good for 1913.
