Nope, I'm in GA, but I'm a big fan of anything that results in sadness for Code Pinko.

Gunny probably owns the prototype.
Hell, Gunny probably gave BIRTH to the prototype!

Well, I just went to the Mail Call url and sent a note off to Gunny asking if he could show it on his show.

What's really great about 40mm in a city, is that you can fire it right straight through windows several hundred yards away, killing all of the bad guys who are hiding behind solid cover and making occasional pot shots.

Damn! You're right..
I had a mental block, refusing to think of a "mortar" as a direct line of sight weapon....
A super grenade launcher....

Christopher Walken used a similar weapon in a merc movie. "Dogs of War", maybe?

Looks like a larger version of the old streetsweeper shotgun. The one with the multiround cylinder.

My "oh yeah," it must be noted, was directed at the GUN, not the GUYs. LOL! Yeah. Uh, huh...

Have you seen this upgrade to an oldie but goodie?
FAE for a SMAW
SMAW Novel Explosive (SMAW-NE) The Marines were so impressed with the success of thermobaric weapons used in Operation Enduring Freedom that they approached Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head and requested a shoulder-mounted version of their own. The Indian Head Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (IHDIV, NSWC) (teaming with the Marine Corps Systems Command, NSWC Dahlgren, and Talley Defense Systems) responded to an urgent US Marine Corps need for a shoulder-launched enhanced-blast warhead, by delivering the Shoulder-Launched Multi Purpose Assault Weapon--Novel Explosive (SMAW-NE) in 2003. The highly successful collaboration spanned only nine months from concept development to weapon system fielding. This team used their expertise in warhead design, fuze design, test, manufacturing, systems safety, and systems integration in providing a solution to this technical challenge. Among many other enhancements, this modernized weapon includes a new warhead case design capable of penetrating brick targets and a thermobaric explosive fill that provides an enhanced lethality.
