Jesus how old are you two?

You dont hump an automatic grenade launcher like the stryker or the Mk19....though you could [and we did in SOI].

We have these things today...they're called Helicopters and HUMVEES. You put gas in them and they bring the heavy stuff to you. Just like ammo and hot chow. Or you can mount them onto the HUMVEES or Armour.

'Scuze me, but if that auto grenade launcher,with laser sights and proximityy fusing by computer control, if it aint humped in to combat, then why is it set up in a tripod in the picture?? You dont take something off a Humvee and set up in a tripod, you leave it in a mount in the Humvee!!

Unless this is a perimeter defense weapon only, still, it will have to be carried, and a box that size must weigh more than 150 pounds when filled with ammo!

Good thing I was an Air Winger!! He he he he he he....
