Put a MK-19 Auto Grenade Launcher on it

When you get one that runs its a beast nothing kept the talibs heads down like dropping sparkle magic all over the mountainside with this bitch

I hated this thing in Afghanistan. It seemed to jam ALL the time. It was a POS.

If only the Romans could see this weapon

Why has not action movies ever hip fire it

and u said 1600 meters... which is 1.6km, a kilo=1000, so 1.6 thousand meters..1.6km. then u switched to freedom units, but meters is metric!!

when i heard u say 40 millimeter... waht? those aren't freedom units

Great coverage of this outstanding weapon, and the bonus of highlighting the AGS-17.

These are great! I think I've seen them mounted on top of grocery stores in Los Angeles, too!

I was thinking Seiko instead of Saco....

Hopefully the US upgrades it's automatic grenade launchers to accommodate a high velocity version of the 40mm hellhound. It's a longer 40mm grenade with more explosive and a 10-meter kill radius instead of just 5.

Definitely don’t dry fire a MK19. Then you’ll have to strip it and put it back together again. A big pain in the ass.

"..
which has been instrumental in driving up coce-prices for me" -wait whàt?

LOL! Sh*t_bag AG. Don't forget the less than SB who acts as Assistant AG to wake up the SB when the belt gets short.

its hard to tell how much power this ammo is.
which has more penetration 12.7mm NATO or 40mm grenade?
AAV7's armament is Mk 19 40 mm automatic grenade launcher and 12.7 mm M2HB heavy machine gun.
for vehicle, which is better weapon?
Mk 19 40 mm automatic grenade launcher for vehicle + multiple infanries?

they should make a go cart sized armored car, that has an mk19 on a CROWS that has a long ass belt lol

"You're welcome, Army." - Navy

I dont think they'll retire their MK19 even though they could will likely store the MK19s in case they're needed

Effective against the zombie horde in a zombie apolcalypse?

Sir, speaking of AGLs have you ever heard about Chinese made QLZ87?

We (0352 T.O.W. missile gunners) used the 19 against soft targets, troops in the open, lightly armored vehicles. Great weapon system, very reliable and most definitely EFFECTIVE.

Something I really appreciate about this channel and Cappy especially is the willingness to take the piss out of himself, tell jokes and make sure this is both entertaining and informative, rather then just a rote explanation of all this. Keeps it accessible for a non-military person like myself and fun to watch.

M203s have such a good sound. THUNG!

Low speed high drag right here.

It's range is 2212

Its shit.... jammed all the time

when i was there we were not aloud to use then we were told.

imperial measurements are bonkers

"Nothing says f__k off more than a rapid barrage of 40MM grenades." 🤣🤣🤣

Uhh wasn't the Sino-Soviet split in late 50's not late 50's???

Seems like the perfect weapon for Ukraine!

But have you tried strapping it on horse or camel? 🤔

Put that thing on a ATV

The old yeet and delete

you know if its Russian if it has a drum barrel

Is 40mm good enough for grenade?

Love this weapon. Like to get one and show it to a couple of assholes know. The Russians will lose this war because unlike WW2, we aren't supplying Russia with,aviation fuel,600,000 pairs of boots a month,11,200 planes,12,000 tanks and lots of food. Oh! Speaking about logistics. I believe we also sent them 420,000 military vehicles over the course of the war. The other team is getting our help. The Russians suck militarily.Always have.

Again - Crappy Chris comments in between...could've been educational but annoying...x-it

All I know is with all that money sending the Ukraine they better send a lot of these with them for the Ukraine

I honestly don't know why grenades and grenade launchers aren't more emphasized in the military. They should be the primary weapons in conventional warfare, not bullets.

"Use of the Mk-19 in Mexico had driven up my coke prices." Didn't really sound like a joke there Cappy

I rather the hk gmg

WTF means open vs closed bolt?

I started out learning how to use the M79..then it was the M203. I was a weapons instructor so it was both before I retired. Never got to shoot one of these.

I wanna see a mk19 on the tail gun of a v-22 osprey

So basically, see one of these in front of you, run away or die where you stand!
