Sawed off M79

[Brother in Arms]

Special forces units in Vietnam partuclary the LRRPS,SEALS and SOG team fairly routinely cut down the M-79 even after they were able to aquire the XM-148 grenade launcher. I have been told a good 79 gunner could have 3 grenades in the air at one time before the first one hit the ground.

I have seen photos of even shorter barrels than the examples shown in the thread so far. From what I have read the recoil isnt that bad and in thich jungle area the reduced range wasn't an issue. Accuracy isn't that much of an issue either given that firing a grenade is like tossing a football it just takes practice to make it go.

I have always like the fullsized M-79 for t2k because it can fire more rounds than the M203 like ILUM rounds. Though a cut down M79 could'nt because the barrel is to short to accomodate them.

I like that its a dedicated grenade launcher its a good item to have in your guntruck.
