One shot wonder...

I believe there was one of these up for grabs on ASC not too long ago... Horton, I've found someone with a TM M203 if your interested...

none of your links are workng for me Mike

Good night! Well I fixed the others ones, but since this gun is butt ugly I'm getting rid of it...

Ummm, that is not combat related...

Both the XM148 and M79 were eventually superseded by the M203. However, the M79 has remained in service in many niche roles throughout the American armed services.

Unless your load-out is bomb disposal or mine-clearance, I think I will stick to the M203 and it's derivatives

Still, not to hard to build your own of one of those, heck, do a potatoe cannon setup like one of those and you got yourself a seller.

Bwahaha, I just found a video on Arnie's that shows two m79s being used by the navy seals in a combat situation.

It's a long video, and I haven't actually watched it, but here's what someone said about it:

Quote :

You are goddamn right that is a the front sight to a M79

Sorry for bringing this thread back up...

Heh heh, no prob. Don't forget that a M203 also has a sight for the launcher.




Got a link to that video, you are probably right, but I wouldn't mind watching it anyways

Here ya go:

You'll have to summarize it for me, I'm too lazy to watch it.

Edit: Oh yeah, and in the same thread there was this guy's seals impression:

Uh oh, I think I just saw a US solider carrying a AK, maybe I'm wrong but... re. 1:09 on Jackboot's link...

Yeah, that was an AK...

Got to love the internet and its ability to show exception to every possible gear kit. Want to play with an AK and M79 while being in a three color or ACU kit, here are the photos and video to back you up... This is all making any proposed gear rules seem almost like a moot point. Thank goodness this club has people who are efficient at scouring the net, we can gear in just about anything with real world references Still, that is an M79 being used in a combat situation as of Apr, 2006, good find. Now all I need to find is some soldiers using space guns and I am set

More Ak's by US soldier at 2:54...clearly their kits are from when they first went over. So much woodland.
