The CornerShot is a unique periscope weapon that [as the website states] 'makes tight corners an advantage'. The entire device is not a single weapon, It is rather a periscope on which a weapon can be mounted. The CornerShot Standard is the most commonly seen one, being the one that handguns can be mounted on. The Cornershot 40 is exactly what it states, a 40mm grenade launcher mounted on it. The CornerShot APR, APR stands for 'Auto Pistol Rifle' What is mounted on it resembles an AR-15 Pistol of some sort. The newest is the Cornershot CSP, essentially a Cornershot that fires Panzerfaust Rockets.  The CornerShot can only be rotated 60 Degrees in either direction, however the CSP model can be rotated a full 90 degrees.

The '''CornerShot''' is an accessory that allows a mounted weapon to be aimed and fired around corners. The device has two major parts. The rear consists of a stock, pistol grip and monitor for aiming, along with a foregrip / traversing handle used for aiming the front end. The front is an assembly housing a weapon of some kind with a camera linked to the aiming monitor and mounts for accessories such as tactical lights. Cornershot variants are classified by what weapons are able to be mounted on them.

The CornerShot is an accessory that allows a mounted weapon to be aimed and fired around corners. The device has two major parts. The rear consists of a stock, pistol grip and monitor for aiming, along with a foregrip / traversing handle used for aiming the front end. The front is an assembly housing a weapon of some kind with a camera linked to the aiming monitor and mounts for accessories such as tactical lights. Cornershot variants are classified by what weapons are able to be mounted on them.

The CornerShot Standard is the most commonly seen variant, being the one that handguns can be mounted on. The Cornershot 40 is a CornerShot with a 40mm M203 grenade launcher mounted on it. The CornerShot APR ("Auto Pistol Rifle") is a mounting for short AR-15 pattern weapons. The newest is the Cornershot CSP, essentially a Cornershot that fires rockets from the RGW 60, a scaled-down single shot launcher using a rocket derived from the Panzerfaust 3. The CornerShot can be rotated 60 degrees in either direction, however the CSP model can be rotated a full 90 degrees to protect the user from the rocket's backblast.
