U.S. Marine Corps Staff Sgt. James C. Sanchez aims in with the M-32 multiple-shot grenade launcher, an experimental six-barreled weapon that can deliver six 40 mm grenades in under three seconds. Marines are fielding the new rapid-fire weapon to troops to boost small-team capabilities to deliver greater indirect firepower. U.S. Marine Corps photo by Gunnery Sgt. Mark Oliva

Wouldn't be that hard of a conversion on the six shot revolver launcher at JT.

Thats cool.  That looks like a Vltor manufactured rail.  I like the QD Swivel spot.

The grenade launcher in the first picture is based on a Milkor MGL.  I'm not sure what the CAW one is replicating.

In a few sites I found, the CAW was referred to as the MGL!
Might have just been a persons opinion doing the review. :?

It IS a Milkor.  MGL-140 to be exact.  DoD is calling it the M32, and the Army might get a few.

With regards to the rail, it DOES look like an VLTOR product.  I've also seen some with a Milkor-produced intgrated forend, with removeable rail sections.

The stock/stock angle coupled with that optic height looks very awkward.  I'd prefer the stock of the MGL Mk1 because it places the buttpad higher in relation to the bore and glass.  My M16/M203 has a Docter on the side quadrant sight and it works like a charm.  I prefer that to top-mounted optics and leaf sights for GLs, but it's also snagged easier on your kit.

Just found out that these are being made by VLTOR under contract from Milkor, and that they will even be producing the optic.  That explains the rail and stock in the above pics.

It's also been suggested by someone in the know that it's strictly a Marine venture.

My above post has nothing to do with Public Enemy's frontman other than the fact that I was listening to PE when I typed it.

That's Chuck D, shithead.

The guy in the know is Chuck P, I thought. I haven't read the VLTOR launcher thread on LF since before work though.

Let's just say that is a sight to see.  It'd be awesome to see that thing in action! :twisted:  :twisted:
