Staff Sgt. James C. Sanchez aims in with the M-32 Multiple shot Grenade Launcher, an experimental six-barreled weapn that can deliver six 40 mm grenades in under three seconds. Marines are fielding the new rapid-fire weapon to troops to boost small-team capabilities to deliver greater indirect firepower.

Not like the Marines are having a recruiting problem, but if they ever did, I'd recommend that they park one of these boys on every enlistment officer's desk from here to Anchorage. 8^)

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

Does anyone remember the "Dogs of War" movie with Christopher Wauken? What was the weapon he had that had a revolving cylinder that looked like a Thomson but fired explosive grenades? That must have been 20 years ago.

I said this before; I'd be a terrible soldier because the second my troop was fired at, everything within 100 square miles not American would be wiped out dead, blanched, gone, zip, zero, nada.
