I fully agree with you if aint broke don't fix it and the "Goose" as you put it sure aint broke.
Heh, good point. I was a little surprised as well when I started seeing pics of M79's still in use in Afghanistan. I'm assuming they did so because the M79 can accommodate some of the specialized longer 40mm rounds as compared to the M203?

Also, said discussion applies to the OPFOR side as well. The AK47's been around since the beginning of the Cold War, and isn't likely to go away anytime soon either.
