So, I think I played a little too much GTA V and let my horrible MS Paint skills get the better of me. Now we have this; a compact grenade launcher. Basically a sawwed down M79 Thumper. If one were to do this IRL, would it be usable or useful?

They already have those. They're called grenades.

Kinda.

I want to see you throw a grenade as far as a goddamn grenade launcher.

That's actually pretty fucking awesome. Guess I wasn't looking hard enough.

SOG guys in 'Nam were known to carry chopped M79s with them. They were used as a standoff weapon, so in case of an ambush they could quickly unload a 40mm grenade or two and disappear into the jungle in the ensuing chaos.

>thumper
Now that that's out of the way I believe this exact thing has been done in the past.
Only used with buck or flechettes if I recall. Intended as an anti-ambush weapon

Step it up nigger, tier one operators are still using these to this day. >>34565062 was the alleged loadout from the OBL raid IIRC

I wonder how useful this kind of thing would be on a motorcycle. I have to imagine some bike gangs would cause some major troubles with these, yeah?

>>34565174
Just said DEVGRU in general, no mention of any specific deployment.

But yes, probably was carried on that raid.

You guys know 40mm launchers kick like a mother fucker right?

Poor doggo
That picture always makes me laugh, that absorbance pad didn't stand a chance
The sheer volume and force behind the vomit stream is impressive

>>34565697

Probably because the real ones are rather uncommon.

>>34565041
These are in theater....used for 40mm RAM breaching rounds....mostly...and yes they kick
>>
>>34565041
In Matt Bissonnette's book, no Easy Day, there's a picture of his lo-speed hi-drag loadout and he had an M79 that looked just slightly bigger than that.
