Geez boon nice toy yahs gots their young feller. I had the pleasure of carrying a Blooper in the military for a bit. Traded it in for my good old M-16.
Dang problem is if yah got close quarters the M-79 became kind of a slug shotgun as the round had to travel so many feet to go off. How many sorry I forget. or the other vets here may remember. O.K. you guys hold on and back up their now and I call a fair fight.

I fired off so many rounds of HE through the M79 that I could dot an i with it...not using the sights. Never used one in a shootout though. I think they arm after 20 meters.
