Yorkshire Sniper 0 Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 I still think that it could all go horribly wrong! if the fire control software isnt absolutely perfect, a lot of bad things could happen. it could be knocked out of alignment in a combat drop or amphibious landing, and if that happens it could be potentially deadly to the user. it could detonate the grenade round it the breach, set it to explode 2-3 feet away. but... on the other hand... if they get it spot on. it will produce the most highly effective combat weapon since the introduction of the Smart bomb.

Camel 0 Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 It looked heavy to me, but the .pdf said it only weighs 5 pounds It could be very dangerous in the unskilled hands, but very effective if it works properly and the shooter is well trained. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
connie lingus 0 Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 Greetings! I've seen so many different styles of this system on this board, this is the first picture that looks like the one in GR. I wonder if all the others were different manufacturers or were they "concept" designs? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

*FNG*Skunk 0 Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 I'm not so sure about this thing. It sounds great, but I know of guys who couldn't even think to operate the selector switch on the M-16, ( one guy even kept dropping and slamming in fresh clips even though he wasn't firing) in the heat of a firefight much less decide from 5 options on what to do with the grenade launcher. My point on this is it needs to be as brain-dead operable as possible under combat conditions otherwise its just wasted weight and equipment, and could actually get someone killed while they are distracted with their weapon. Your highest vulnerablility is when reloading, clearing a jam, or otherwise not paying attention to your surroundings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
