July 28 Grenade Launcher

Late post due to Army blocking of blogs. I finally found a way.

Short day with a trip to the M19 range. This looks like a very small cannon, about 2 feet long and 2 inches in diameter. We fed a belt of 16 grenades that looked like fat, rounded bullets. We then fired them at simulated vehicles 200 meters away and were rewarded with flash-bangs when we hit. These were just training rounds; the real ones will damage anything within 30 meters.
