      I've got it! A Barrett XM-109 Payload Rifle with an underbarrel MGL-40!

        I like Chuck Norris' nickel-plated pair of Guns of Navarone cannon, in tooled-leather shoulder holsters, with custom triggers and ivory grips.
        You know, his "concealed" handguns.

          That looked so cool I had to research it and I'm working one up right now. Which of course I need to work up the three rounds the marines came up with (the Hellhound, the Draco, and the HUNTIR), and now I realize there are other GL's I have to apply those new rounds to, and then I see my US GL's page has some missing information, and did I make similar mistakes elsewhere...

            don't threaten him with a good time.
            the best course of action when all is against you is to slow down and think critically about the situation. this way you are not blindly rushing into an ambush and your mind is doing something useful rather than getting you killed.

              OK, now you've really done it. While putting some of the missing information on the US Grenade Launchers page, I found out that there was no 25mm Manville Gun -- he made it in 26.9mm!

              Hogan...!

                hehehe...Unfortunatly I don't have any really good info on the China Lake Grenade launcher handy. Back when I was first studying the China lake and the EX-41 I did manage to get some info from Kevin Dockerty but I lost the note. Pitty as the EX-41 is one of those rare weapons that few people have seen or heard about. I blaim the Guns.RU site for confusing the two in peoples minds.

                  Well Wikipedia seems to have got it right: EX 41 grenade launcher

                    No, now you've really done it! The Sage Deuce G-1 has a brother, the Deuce G-2. It's designed for police use, and fires a bunch of whacky 37mm less-lethal rounds, and now I have to come up with rules for them!

                      If you really want to see somer Aussies going nuts, see if you can find some coverage of The Melbourne Cup horse race, "the race that stops a nation". Starts in about 15 minutes from now. Traditionally this is an event where men and women get blind drunk at the racetrack (or wherever really, all across Australia) and make total fools of themselves. Bring it on!

                        That's because I helped correct the China lake page and found most of the info for the EX-41 Page. Yeah I've been trying to kill the EX-41=China Lake grenadelauncher meme. I've done a great job outside of the World of Guns page.

                            Well, it looks like I'm going to have to redo the layout and information on my Grenade Launcher Ammunition page. That's what sometimes happens when I get a new idea -- a massive rewrite.

                              Well, I can't say I'm surprised. It seems we're all related as our Limey cousins in the U.K. had a similiar idea as well.

                              Ladies and gentlemen, I present for your perusal, the ISTEC 40x46mm grenade launcher...mounted on an H&K MP5 submachine gun.

Whether or not it's a satisfactory answer depends on a number of things, not least the personality of the person making the determination. Force isn't an attractive answer, though. I would not be true to myself or to the people I served with in 1970 if I did not make that realization clear."

                                Those people paid far too much attention to the Arnie movie "End Of Days". Internet Movie Firearms Database entry here
                                ...and besides, with that pic from Vietnam, it's pretty obvious that we Australians were far crazier far earlier than these British "Johnny Come Lately" fellas
