The marine Corp is cureently fielding a new gernade launcher to replace the M-203. The M-32 is a shot rotary launcher usiing a 40mm round. these rounds are not compatible with the M-203 rounds. New rounds have a 10meter burst radious M-203 has a 5 meter burst radious. The fish eye lense round on a parachute would be to difficult to implement.
Kit proposal: 1 M-32 launcher w/ 6rounds HEDP
12 M-32 HEDP rounds (2 sec reload time per round)
1 open sight M-4
6 30 round M-4 magizines
1 1st aid kit.
weapon system is semi automatic and is a low recoil system so rounds can be fire quickly.
implemntation would need a new graphic for the weapon, rounds could stay the same as current M-203 if a larger burst radious is seemed as unbalancing.

Locked for resuggestion.
Unfortunatley the search function requires at least 5 characters to work properly so military designations often don't work.
Thanks for visiting and we welcome your enthusiasm, but please do search all the possibilities (in this case, something vauge like "grenade launcher" etc) and read the "already suggested suggestions" sticky in this forum before you post a new suggestion.

The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough.
